Re: Tutorial part 1 Parent module not loaded

Is it possible that that the way the sys and user paths are set up can cause this problem.  When I used the command prompt of python from the python directory I received the error, however, when I changed the directory to c:\djangoprojects\mysite\polls and then imported views it worked fine.

What is your app name? are you sure the name is polls??. The solution i mention works.

I tried your solution and had the same results

from django.conf.urls import include, url
from django.contrib import admin
from polls import views

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^polls/', include('polls.urls')),
    url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
]

RESULTS

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "urls.py", line 18, in <module>
    from polls import views
ImportError: No module named 'polls'

Hi,

I am very new to Python and Django but not to programming. I have been programming for 30 years. That said I am trying to work my way thru the Django tutorial part 1 and I am confronted with the following error I can't get past:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "urls.py", line 3, in <module>
    from . import views
SystemError: Parent module '' not loaded, cannot perform relative import
Press any key to continue . . .

I'm sure you will request additional information but at this point I'm not sure what you will want to see.  I will post whatever you require.I have started over 3 times with the same results.  I believe I have followed the steps faithfully and I have setup the directory structures as you direct.  I didn't change anything. I'm running python 3.5.1 and Django 1.9.1. 

I would appreciate any help getting thru this as its becoming very frustrating

Thanks
