#28174: Cannot run `manage.py runserver` on Windows with quotation mark in .env
file (TypeError: environment can only contain strings)

Type: Bug | Status: new
Component: Core | Version: 1.11
(Management commands) |
Severity: Normal | Keywords:

-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
We have a .env file with a SECRET_KEY defined as follows
SECRET_KEY="SECRETKEYHERE"
This causes a failure with Django 1.11. The workarounds are:
1) Downgrade to Django 1.10
2) Remove the quotation marks and just have SECRET_KEY=SECRETKEYHERE
This appears to only be a problem on Windows and does not repro on
Mac/Linux.
