Error when using django.template

Question

I\'m a beginner in django and I got a lot of errors when using template module from django. The following works from the python shell:

from django import templat         


        

Answer 1

I also had the same problem.

The main point is that in the django book 2, this piece of code is not supposed for users to put into a Python IDLE started from your python.exe ( presumably in C:\Program Files\Python33 on Windows).

Rather, it is just showing how the piece of code will look like. The solution is simply run 'cmd' and change the directory to your 'mysite', and run

python manage.py shell

which ensure that the 'mysite.settings.py' is used.
