Error in adding django-axes to project

Question

I have installed django axes with this command in cmd :

pip install django-axes

Then i addes to my setting.py file this parts :

    INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'post_app',
    'axes',
]

MIDDLEWARE = [
    'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
    'axes.middleware.FailedLoginMiddleware',
]

AXES_LOCK_OUT_AT_FAILURE = False
AXES_USE_USER_AGENT = True
AXES_COOLOFF_TIME = 1
AXES_LOGIN_FAILURE_LIMIT = 50

Now i want to runserver with this command :

python manage.py runserver

But i have this error in cmd :

Is there any mistake?or any missed work?

Did you run python manage.py migrate to sync the database before you run the server? If you did, then you need to check your python version and django verison, check this for detail: https://github.com/jazzband/django-axes/blob/master/.travis.yml
