✅

You’re passing a wrong argument to the execute_from_command_line method. You should do something like below:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import sys

if __name__ == "__main__":
    os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "<package>.<subpackage>.settings") #path to the settings py file
    from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
    execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)

OR

#!/usr/bin/env python
import os

if __name__ == "__main__":
    os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "<package>.<subpackage>.settings") #path to the settings py file
    from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
    execute_from_command_line() # by default sys.argv argument is taken

Indeed, the argument of execute_from_command_line is, as its name suggests, a parsed command line where the 1st element is the executable name, and the others are arguments
