Thanks Malcolm. It is the case.
Instead of relying on the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE which was there in the /etc/profile i have used the below code (taken from http://superjared.com/entry/django-and-crontab-best-friends/ & also mentioned by peteDK) ----- from django.core.management import setup_environ import settings setup_environ(settings) ------ now it is working well.
