I’m on Celery and Windows section and I followed the steps in the attached PDF file,  
When I ran pipenv install, I got the below display

Installing dependencies from Pipfile.lock (16c357)…  
🐍 ▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉▉ 0/0 — 00:00:00

The pipenv shell worked well, but when I then ran python manage.py migrate and python manage.py seed\_db, I got the below error message

python: can’t open file ‘/home/user/manage.py’: [Errno 2] No such file or directory.

I feel, from my point of view, the dependencies project (Pipfile.lock) seems empty 0/0 -00:00:00.  
Could that be the problem? I cannot say. I just need a way out guys. PLEASE  
Thanks.
