Can you show the file structure of you project like this:

/project
-app1/
--models.py
--views.py
-manage.py
-settings.py

with your actual files and structure?
Also it would be useful to see the contents of you manage.py file

  ImproperlyConfigured: Requested setting USE_I18N, but settings are not 
 configured. You must either define the environment variable 
 DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE or call settings.configure() before accessing 
 settings.

Re: I encountered a core exception and need help configuring for a database. My OS is Ubuntu 12.10 32 bit

[Bill Freeman]

Setting an environment variable is done by saying something like:

lightning@rigel5:~$ export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE='mysite.settings'

assuming that your settings.py file is in a directory named "mysite", in
turn in the current directory (your home directory, if I interpret your
prompt string correctly).  Then that command may work.

But that's the painful way to do that.  Presumably there is a file named
manage.py either in the same directory as settings.py (older Djangos) or
one directory up (newer Djangos).  'cd' to the directory containing
manage.py and type:

lightning@rigel5:pathToDirectoryContainingManage_py$ python manage.py
diffsettings

If you look at manage.py with 'less' or with an editor, you will see that
it sets the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable (though using
python code, rather than shell code) appropriately (for use from the
current directory) before doing other stuff.

For my money, django-admin.py should only ever be used for its startproject
command.  Everything else should be done with manage.py after cd'ing to the
directory that contains it (or from a wsgi script, which also sets the
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable and adjusts sys.path to be sure
that the directory containing manage.py is there, but that will come much
later for you, I think).
