Question

Can anyone help me please to solve this..

from django.db import models

# Create your models here.
class Poll(models.model):
    question = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')

class Choice(models.Model):
    poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll)
    choice = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    votes = models.IntegerField()

Answer 1

It's called models.Model and not models.model (case sensitive). Fix your Poll model like this -

class Poll(models.Model):     question = models.CharField(max_length=200)      pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published') 

Answer 2

I also got the same error but I noticed that I had typed in Foreign*k*ey and not Foreign*K*ey,(capital K) if there is a newbie out there, check out spelling and caps.

Answer 3

Searching

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'BinaryField'

landed me here.

The above answers did not solve the problem, so I'm posting my answer.

BinaryField was added since Django 1.6. If you have an older version, it will give you the above error.

You may want to check the spelling of the attribute first, as suggested in the above answers, and then check to make sure the module in the Django version indeed has the attribute.
