This is Django processing a {% url %} tag in the template. {% url %} does
reverse mapping and requires that the entire URLconf be valid.

Ultimately when trying to initially populate the reverse dictionary for
reverse url resolution, the code ran into a situation where instead of an
expected callable or string that could be resolved into a callable, a
Settings object was found.
So, there's something wrong in the overall URLconf. Possibly the local
variables you could access from the stack trace on a debug page would point
you toward which one.
