As has been pointed out to you before, `django.shortcuts.render_to_response` has nothing whatsoever to do with the django-shortcuts third-party package. It does not need to be installed separately.

The traceback which you quote shows you exactly what is wrong - you have not set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable. To avoid the need for this, start your shell with `./manage.py shell` rather than ipython directly.

I get the same error about django settings Before, I know how to get it done under IDE ,but for the thing under command line,cannot fix it. Under IDE , I just set the django module Settings to be project name plus settings.

hi, Daniel:
   That does work, you solve a big problem for me. Thanks a lot.
   Also, it seems like manage.py have lots of built in command which are doing different things. Could you give a thread that i can access to learn more about those commands? thanks
By the way, i will tell people who have met the same problem the solution.
Thans again.
regards,
Bowen
