Can't access MySQL database in Django VirtualEnv on localhost
I found the problem I was having. 
Django was importing a different settings.py file.
I had another django project inside my django product like myproject/myproject/. 
Instead of importing myproject/settings.py, it was importing myproject/myproject/settings.py
I assume that Aptana Studio created that project there. If you use eclipse you are also likely to have this problem.
I have had a virtualenv for Trunk up and running for a while, but now I am trying to branch, and get things setup on another virtualenv for my 'refactor' branch.
Everything looks to be setup correctly, but when I try to run any manage.py commands, I get this error:
_mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (1045, "Access denied for user 'brian'@'localhost' (using password: NO)")
I just don't understand why it's not attempting to use the password I have set in my django settings file.  Is there some addition mysql setup I could have overlooked?  Does this issue ring any bells for anyone?
Thanks in advance.
