Django Mezzanine ImportError: No Module Named Apps

I had a working mezzanine project configured with apache and mod_wsgi. I tried to added an app to the project and restarted apache and suddenly the project is throwing the error ev

Solution 1:

You say you have a folder named apps in your Django installation, but the traceback shows it is executing code that was removed in 1.7, the same version that introduced django.apps. Your installation is most likely corrupt and has files from different versions.

Uninstall Django from your Python installation, and completely remove the /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-pacakges/django/ folder. Then, reinstall a Django version that is compatible with your version of Mezzanine.

It seems that you've installed Django into your global Python installation. This can easily cause such problems when multiple projects need to use different versions of python packages. It is recommended to use a virtual environment to manage requirements for your projects in an isolated environment and prevent such conflicts.
