It would be helpful to see the code which generates the error. But
anyway, I think it is identified in your stack trace here ...

class_name = dotted_path.rsplit('.', 1)
ImportError: polls doesn't look like a module path

... where you import polls, are you using a backslash anywhere? The
framework is expecting a dot instead of a slash or (in your case) backslash.

For example, you might be using "from myproject\polls import something"
and that should instead be "from myproject.polls import something"

What makes this work is the existence of a (probably empty) file called
__init__.py in each directory on either side of the path separator
(unix/linux/mac slash or windows backslash) so you might also check you
have those __init__.py files in place.
