AccessInit: hash collision: 3 for both 1 and 1

Hi Kurdy,

do you run Tools->Run manage.py task from pycharm?

Can you run command successfully from the command line?

There are a lot of modules that uses PIL different from Django (SciPy, Pigments, Sphinx etc.) For many

of them it helps to install the latest distributed version.

Also known solution is to add

import sys
import PIL.Image
sys.modules['Image'] = PIL.Image

Hi Catherine,

Yes, I did run Tools->Run manage.py task from pycharm

And yes, I can use the command successfully from the command line.

I did use the latest available PIL: PIL-1.1.7.win32-py2.7.exe

Since I have a django-cms project configured in PyCharm, I do not maintain any of the core code.

That is, I don't know where I would have to add this hack.

Hi Catherine,

Any news on this one?

I just registered an account to say the following has work for me:

import PIL.Image as Image

that's it.

Step to reproduce:

Create new django project

Install django-filer

Install easy-thumbnails

All in new virtualenv.

Try run manage.py syncdb (Ctrl + Alt + R)

I'm not completely sure on my environment, since I first tried install of PIL as in my initial post, and than removed it and reinstalled it globally.

The issue seems to be the way those apps import the PIL module:

easy-thumbnails / easy_thumbnails / engine.py

    from PIL import Image

django-filer / filer / thumbnail_processors.py

    from PIL import Image

You can replace those lines yourself, not sure if that's the only place where PIL is imported (you can run a search in pycharm).

You should do:

import PIL.Image as Image

This is a bug in pycharm of course, and I dont think they are going to fix it any time soon.

What exactly is a bug in PyCharm, and how do you envision us fixing it? The original post describing the issue does not mention PyCharm at all:
