Hi Eswar, May Peace, Blessings & Mercy of Almighty God be on you! Short answer, your environment is messed up. Now, let us address who or how was it messed up
There are many reasons why you could be getting this error. One major issue similar I have frequently faced is in case you have multiple versions of Python on the same box. Python 2.x & 3.x installed on the same box. Django version 1.x is compatible with Python 2.x. Python 3.x & django 1.x do not work together. In case you have multiple versions of Python installed, you may have to tweak the PATH to indicate the appropriate directory in the search path ahead of the other directories. This is probably your reason for the stuff not working as you have both 2.2.11 & 1.3.1 of Django installed. 1. You may be using an IDE like pycharm/spyder/any other IDE. Normally, these IDEs try to download packages. In case there is a version mismatch in the source of the package, there could be a mess up. 2. Your PATH & PYTHONPATH environment variable may not have the relevant directory or have a different directory with the same file name ahead of the actual file you want loaded. 3. You may be using a virtualenv. Try to deactivate & try executing the same Hope this helps. Kindly share your experience. Thanks in advance. God Bless You!
