./manage.py cron

Hmmm, I’m fairly new to Django but I don’t see any management commands related to cron in Django 1.4 that I’m using.
Were you maybe using some Django app such as Django Cronjobs (https://github.com/jsocol/django-cronjobs), for example, to get that management command?
Keep up the good work with the posts!
