Admin Page Error

[Daniel Pek]

Hi, 

I'm new to Django, and I've been following the tutorial up until the 2nd part where it asks your to runserver, and then access the admin page. However, when i try to access 127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ i get this error:

Here is the traceback:

Hello,

Try completely uninstalling and reinstalling django.

The shortcuts module was changed from django/shortcuts/__init__.py to django/shortcuts.py, and I bet this error is related to that.
