tutorial part3 : polls didn't match URL patterns

[AJ NOURI]

I have Python 2.7.3

I am new in django and I am following the tutorial 3 at :https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/intro/tutorial03/

I followed exactly the steps described:

Here is a copy/paste from files in the project:

cat polls/views.py

from django.http import HttpResponse

def index(request):
        return HttpResponse("Hello, world. You're at the poll index.")

from /mysite: cat urls.py

from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url

from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^polls/', include('polls.urls')'),
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)'),
)

cat polls/urls.py

from django.conf.urls import patterns, url

from polls import views

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    url(r'^$', views.index, name='index')
)

The page debug shows the following error: 

It looks like, it doesn't recognize the "polls" pattern in /mysite/urls.py.

Am I missing something?

change this

url(r'^polls/', include('polls.urls')'),

for this

url(r'^', include('polls.urls')'),

AJ NOURI,

I had the exact same issue.  The trick for me was to edit the existing file at mysite/mysite/urls.py.  I had previously created a new file at mysite/urls.py (one directory up).  The code from the tutorial works for me now that I have it in the proper directory.  Your message was from a couple of months ago, I wanted to add this in case anyone is stuck at the same place.

My problem was that I put the file in the wrong place. It says the file should be `mysite/urls.py`, but it really should be `mysite/mysity/urls.py'.
