Need some help. When I try to run a django server using pants, I get a persistent error.
./pants run fleet_backend:manage -- runserver                                                                     ─╯

Are you sure it's installed and available on your PYTHONPATH environment variable? Did you forget to activate a virtual environment?

try running the
dependencies
goal with the
--dependencies-transitive
option to see if pants sees that this target (fleet_backend:manage) depends on Django. so:
./pants dependencies --dependencies-transitive fleet_backend:manage
if you are using Django make sure you turned on string based dependency inference. https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/reference-python-infer#string_imports

I resolved the issue. Thanks for your advice nonetheless
