Description
On Quince (17.0.0).
As per all documentations, the command to cache programs is:
tutor local run lms ./manage.py lms cache_programs
but this recently started giving:
RuntimeError: Model class openedx.core.djangoapps.content_staging.models.StagedContent doesn't declare an explicit app_label and isn't in an application in INSTALLED_APPS.
The solution is to simply run inside cms container instead:
tutor local run cms ./manage.py lms cache_programs
I am writing this here to notify others of this to not waste as much time as I did. I'm happy if someone formats this issue better and puts it exactly where it should be (correct repo, forum, whatever.).
The documentation needs to be updated.
