Are you adding that code in the beginning of your script handler your application use?

[roberto.cr]

as Jose has said, put the code you pasted here in the beginning of the
script
some stuff load django code without you knowing, like some stuff from
google.appengine.ext.webapp if I remember correctly

use_library().

There's an undocumented way to do this:

I described here how I solved this problem. It works fine for me in production, ubuntu and macos:

Good luck,

An alternative to what Jose says whould be to create a file named
appengine_config.py in the same directory as your app.yaml and add the
folowing line: webapp_django_version = '1.2'

[Gillwill]

Another alternative that worked for me, that did not require the
"import django", is by putting the following line:

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'settings'

right above these lines

from google.appengine.dist import use_library
use_library('django', '1.2')

I think it's also important for these lines to be put before any other
import that uses django. For example, if you put them after the "from
google.appengine.ext.webapp import template", it will probably draw
the error because the template import will have already imported the .
96 version.

You don't want to rely on this as with py27 os.environ will be thread
local...
