Starting yesterday, I'm experiencing a troubling issue. Anything I execute in my virtualenv's console from manage.py seems to be stucked and never ends, nor shows any output.
Has anyone faced the same issue? is there something I can do to fix it?
Thanks!
If you interrupt it with a Ctrl+C, what do you see in the traceback? Does that give you any clues as to what it's stuck on?
Yes, I see a statement that can't mean any good at all. This is the troubling part:
mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (2013, "Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 4")
And this is the full stacktrace (except the part where it says I interrupted via keyboard)

Any ideas?

Try switching to the new way of connecting to the mysql server (change your django settings.py from mysql.server to tafveez.mysql.pythonanywhere-services.com). Both should work but the newer way should give a more stable connection. Let us know if you are still having any issues.
