Flask Fails to Run

[gavwellis]

Hey,

I keep getting the following errors after running 'flask run' after completing all the steps in README.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "d:\workspace\python\projects\flask-boilerplate-dashboard-argon\env\lib\site-packages\flask\cli.py", line 240, in locate_app
    __import__(module_name)

    app = create_app( app_config )

    from sqlalchemy import Binary, Column, Integer, String
ImportError: cannot import name 'Binary' from 'sqlalchemy' (d:\workspace\python\projects\flask-boilerplate-dashboard-argon\env\lib\site-packages\sqlalchemy\__init__.py)

Any idea why this might be happneing?

Thanks,

Hello @gavwellis,

Please update. The app should work as expected.

Once I manually checked for updates it appeared that many bits were missing. Installed all Windows updates, redeployed the virtual environment and now we are back up and running. Thanks for your help.
