Since ipython and "the standard python prompt" are eqiuvalents for each other, this shouldn't be surprising. There's nothing special about ipython w.r.t. Django -- it's just a fancier interactive prompt. > It does work if I launch a shell with: python manage.py > shell. Yes, because manage.py takes care of settings. If you want to do that manually, you need to set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable or configure settings manually in your code. This is documented here: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/settings/ (see "using settings without DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE" at the end of that file for another approach).
