The error message says it all: it is looking for
testporject.polls.views.django.views.static. Notice the first part. It
means your view function is taken from within testproject.polls.views
(which is probably on top in your patterns declaration).
You should take this declaration out of there and add it seperately,
something like this:
urlpatterns = patterns('testproject.polls.views',
# your patterns here
)
urlpatterns += patterns('',...
# the static view here
)
