I can’t see anything missing or wrong here.
If you run runserver and it’s still trying to reference jet in the path of the static files, then my next hypothesis is that something is messed up in your installation. If that’s the case, I suggest deleting and creating your virtual environment that you’re using here.
You mean starting everything afresh?
Just recreate the virtual environment.
(From the collectstatic output above, it looks like it may be the /Users/ndalamafestusedward/banking-system/myenv directory)
yes that is the one.
so i create new one with the same name? will it override the existing one?
You can delete the directory and create a new one with the same name.
Or, you can create the new one with a different name, and activate it instead.
But it won’t normally let you recreate a venv over an existing instance.
Okay let me do that and will give you feedback

From this information, it appears you may be doing this on a Mac?
If so, we’ve gone beyond what I can do to help you here.
I mean, I know that the direct issue referenced here is a missing package. But if that’s not picked up by your installation process, I don’t know what to do. Hopefully one of the Mac experts around here might pick up on this and try to help.
Okay, i decided to downgrade python version and see how it goes. I solved such a problem twice by downgrading but i am not sure why it solves or what exactly causes that.
Best of luck to you.
I’ve had such horrible experiences with trying to do Python / Django development on a Mac that I gave up years ago and will never bother with it again. (The whole Python ecosystem on a Mac just feels extremely “sloppy” to me, and not worth the effort.)
