Karen,

      It worked after I used the mv command to move the settings.py
settings.py.break and then did another move where from settings.py.break to
settings.py, then I ran the server by using the manage.py syncdb. I do not
understand why that even worked ( I didn't want to use the settings.py.break
because the Django originally used the settings.py), so that why I did the
move 2 times. Originally before the settings.py.break came into play, there
was another settings.py elsewhere in the file which create some corruption (
hence, problem with configuration -- DATABASE ENGINE was not set).
Therefore, to remove the settings.py from another location, I had to do what
I did above. Oddly, it works.
