Answer 1

You're missing a package to install that is listed in INSTALLED_APPS. This was a regression - if you upgrade to the latest Django 1.8.x, it will tell you the missing app. Install it via pip and you should be good.

Answer 2

确保项目内的manage.py文件的os.environ设置为listbaby.settings。

os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "listbaby.settings")
