"Import Error: No module named urls" with Django 1.8 and Rest Framework 3.7

Question

I'm using django==1.8, rest_framework=3.7.7, python==2.7.12

urls.py

urlpatterns += [
     url(r'^api/core/', include('core.urls')),
]

core/urls.py

urlpatterns=[
    url(r'^/users/', core_view.userlist),
]

views.py

class UserList(generics.ListAPIView):
queryset = User.objects.all()
serializer_class = UserSerializer
userlist = UserList.as_view()

When I'm navagating to: http://localhost:8000/api/core/users I'm getting the following error:

ImportError at /api/core/users
No module named urls
Request Method: GET
Request URL:    http://localhost:8000/api/core/users
Django Version: 1.8
Exception Type: ImportError

Exception Location: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/rest_framework/compat.py in <module>, line 26

what is wrong in configuration?

Django Rest Framework dropped support for Django 1.8 in version 3.7.

You should install an earlier version of rest framework, or upgrade Django (note that Django 1.8 reaches end-of-life in April 2018)
