django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: WSGI application 'swd.wsgi.application' could not be loaded; Error importing module.

my wsgi.py:

import os

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

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

application = get_wsgi_application()

my settings.py:

WSGI_APPLICATION = 'swd.wsgi.application'

Could someone help me out?

TIA
