"Caught ImportError while rendering: No module named urls" in Admin

Question

I have recently created an account at SliceHost and made a new Slice. I copied my new project in and changed the paths in settings, and every file. But, when i try to access the admin interface, I get this error:

TemplateSyntaxError at /admin/
Caught ImportError while rendering: No module named urls

In template /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/base.html, error at line 31
Caught ImportError while rendering: No module named urls

Anyone know why?

I fixed my problem. It was because I was at the wrong version of Haystack. Thanks though guys.

Just to clarify the above answer, when you install from pip you can grab haystack or django-haystack. Likewise for typogrify and surely other packages.

In other words, one of the INSTALLED_APPS isn't correct.

Hope that helps!

I had this error when importing urls at root level:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^tag/', include('tag.urls')),    
#(...)

The file "tag/urls.py" was missing. So. No module named urls. A much better error message would be

Module 'urls.py' not found in app 'tag/'

or something similar.
