Is there any chance that there is more than one python hanging around? For instance, a root python, and a virtualenv made with --no-site-packages (in newer virtualenv installs this is the default).
Or try adding the following to your manage.py (just before the line in there that is in the stacktrace): import sys from pprint import pprint pprint(sys.path) If this doesn't include the site-packages or dist-packages directory where Django is installed, figure out why. (Are you playing with the PYTHONPATH or PYTHONHOME environment variables?)
