Django Tutorial - ImproperlyConfigured exception (pytz isn't installed)

Question

I'm currently working through the official Django tutorial using version 1.6.1 and version 2.7.5 of python on OSX. I'm working on part 2, which is the admin interface. When I attempt to go to /admin/polls/poll/, I get the following error report:

ImproperlyConfigured at /admin/polls/poll/
This query requires pytz, but it isn't installed.
Request Method: GET
Request URL:    http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/polls/poll/
Django Version: 1.6.1
Exception Type: ImproperlyConfigured
Exception Value:    
This query requires pytz, but it isn't installed.
Exception Location: /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/sqlite3/base.py in datetime_trunc_sql, line 196
Python Executable:  /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python
Python Version: 2.7.5

I attempted to install pytz by installing pip (which required installing setuptools) but this made no difference. Also, I am going through this tutorial for a second time, and I know I didn't run into this problem a month ago. Could updating to Mavericks have caused some problem?

Answer 1

I was also getting the same error. I installed pytz

$ pip install pytz

and then i restarted the server. The exception is no more now.
