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.
