Couldn't install

I have netbox (v3.4.4) running in docker containers.
Tried to install the netbox-dns like other plugins too.

  1. Added "netbox-dns" to plugin_requirements.txt
  2. Added "netbox-dns" to Plugins array in configuration/configuration.py
  3. docker-compose build --no-cache

Tried with console and pip install too.

pip install showed me that the requirements are installed.

But when the plugin is activated in configuration, i get that error and the container isn't starting:

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Unable to import plugin netbox-dns: Module not found. Check that the plugin module has been installed within the correct Python environment.

How can i solve that?

Instead of configuration/configuration.py try to add the plugin in configuration/plugins.py:
PLUGINS = [
"netbox_dns",
]

It's not so much a question of where to configure the plugin, it's the spelling: Not netbox-dns, but netbox_dns (note the underscore).

I think that is what made the install fail for @mcules.

That underscore needs a "wasted time counter".
I actually just missed the underscore. I checked it several times with the pip install, but overlooked it with the config.
It's working now, thanks for your help.
