There's a problem in your INSTALLED_APPS setting. You have to use: ('polls',)
Notice the trailing comma. When writing tuples with one item, you must have a traling comma. It indicates that you are writing a tuple, and not simply an expression enclosed in parenthesis. A workaround is to use a list instead, thus ['polls']. Django will try to iterate INSTALLED_APPS and import all the modules there, in order to do its magic. If you iterate ('polls') you get every character in the string.
