Your Python version is likely too new for your version of Django.

Saw this on stack overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70347099/error-installing-a-django-project-attrributeerror-module-collections-has-no-a

Supports what Mordecai Etukudo said about version incompatability.

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. 

>>> import collections 

>>> collections.Iterator 

<stdin>:1: DeprecationWarning: Using or importing the ABCs from 'collections' instead of from 'collections.abc' is deprecated since Python 3.3, and in 3.10 it will stop working 

<class 'collections.abc.Iterator'>

How mature is your project? Changing python (or django) versions isnt always trivial but I suspect your project is fairly new though and you may want to consider using the latest of each.

**What Ryan said about incompatibility

If you want to pick a particular version of python (say, 3.12) when you create an env use:

conda create -n myEnv python==3.12
