I'm getting the following errors in Pycharm.
Error: Django is not importable in this environment
It used to work well but I moved the project and virtualenv to other directory and the error appeared. It's weird because if I run the project ignoring the configuration settings warning that I get, works fine.
The problem is that now, Pycharm is not finding the project interperter.
The command that Pycharm is running is:
/Users/plorenzo/../gestorSchools/venv/bin/python3.4 /Users/plorenzo/../gestorSchools/schoolsManager/manage.py runserver 8000
The virtualenv is activated.
My $PATH is:
/Users/plorenzo/../gestorSchools/venv/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/X11/bin
and my $PYTHONPATH:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/python3.4
I spent a few days trying to find the solution but I couldn't find it.

To enable Django support, follow these steps: Open the project Settings/Preferences dialog ( Ctrl+Alt+S ) and navigate to the Languages & Frameworks | Django page. Make sure that the checkbox Enable Django support is selected. Apply changes (if any) and close the dialog.
If you are using virtual environment for every new project then you need to install django each time. Other wise you can use single virtual environment for all the project.
If you look at the features edition comparison matrix, you will see that only PyCharm Professional supports the Django Framework. You can set up a project from the command line using the manage.py script and just open it in PyCharm.
Yet another case, where my virtualenv did have Django installed, but Pycharm would still display this error.
I eventually found out that the same virtualenv path had been duplicated in the list of available interpreters. Removing all of them and re-adding fixed it.
The duplication happened after I copied the .idea from another machine, and re-created the virtualenv from Pycharm although it was already listed as a (broken) interpreter.

In my case I had to go to Settings (Alt+F7, or the Spanner/Cog icon) and select a Python interpreter which has Django installed alongside it.
If Django isn't already installed, you should be able to install it via the + (plus) icon (not shown below) once an interpreter has been selected.

For people having selected a virtualenv/interpreter that HAS Django installed (but it might have changed python version since first selection...), and even re-installed Django, and still get this message, and slowly getting crazy:
File > Invalidate Caches / Restart ...
Also, keeping the list of available interpreters clean and correct always helps (on my linux, old interpreters of previous linux installations kept popping up...whaat), as well as not using special characters in virtualenv names (as was the OPs problem...see his answer). Messing with the .idea folder also is not recommended (dont copy it to your new computer ;-).

Project interpreter, which is being used in the pycharm setting , doesn't have the django package installed. So go to
setting->Project->project interpreter
Then install django package
it will work :)
