I have followed the tutorial “[Writing your first Django app, part 1 | Django documentation | Django](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/intro/tutorial01/)”. But I am stuck and don’t see my error. I get this error: ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/djangoproject/original/2X/a/a37930800c676ab95afaafb5ecf1c604b67acd2d.png) I have this directory layout: ```auto carsten@Oldman:~/projects/django4/mysite$ ll insgesamt 24 drwxrwxr-x 4 carsten carsten 4096 Mär 29 11:25 ./ drwxrwxr-x 3 carsten carsten 4096 Mär 29 09:13 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 carsten carsten 0 Mär 29 09:16 db.sqlite3 -rwxrwxr-x 1 carsten carsten 662 Mär 29 09:13 manage.py* drwxrwxr-x 3 carsten carsten 4096 Mär 29 09:16 mysite/ drwxrwxr-x 3 carsten carsten 4096 Mär 29 11:24 polls/ -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 170 Mär 29 11:25 urls.py urls.py has this content: ``` from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import include, path urlpatterns = [ path(‘polls/’, include(‘polls.urls’)), path(‘admin/’, admin.site.urls), ] And under the folder polls this structure: ```auto carsten@Oldman:~/projects/django4/mysite/polls$ ll insgesamt 36 drwxrwxr-x 3 carsten carsten 4096 Mär 29 11:24 ./ drwxrwxr-x 4 carsten carsten 4096 Mär 29 11:25 ../ -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 63 Mär 29 09:24 admin.py -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 142 Mär 29 09:24 apps.py -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 0 Mär 29 09:24 __init__.py drwxrwxr-x 2 carsten carsten 4096 Mär 29 09:24 migrations/ -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 57 Mär 29 09:24 models.py -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 60 Mär 29 09:24 tests.py -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 110 Mär 29 11:24 urls.py -rw-rw-r-- 1 carsten carsten 127 Mär 29 11:22 views.py with urls.py like this: ``` from django.urls import path from . import views urlpatterns = [ path(‘’, views.index, name=‘index’), ] and views.py like this: ```auto from django.http import HttpResponse def index(request): return HttpResponse("Hello, world.

have you run python manage.py migrate? _You have 18 unapplied migration(s). Your project may not work properly until you apply the migrations for app(s): admin, auth, contenttypes, sessions._ Also make sure the polls app is added to your settings file ---

dunno but… 1. add ‘polls’ to INSTALLED\_APPS? 2. try [http://127.0.0.1:8000](http://127.0.0.1:8000) and not [http://localhost:8000/](http://localhost:8000/) ? in all cases run migrate to get rid of that noise. ---

Hello chriswedgewood, the tutorial says: ![grafik](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/djangoproject/original/2X/f/f4f415ca39727a8f2a0be2d50c93972b6342a95e.png) When I use the “migrate” the warnings dissapear, but the “polls” page is still not found. ---

Hello plopidou, the tutorial doesn’t mention INSTALLED\_APPS. Where should I put that? It doesn’t make a difference when I go to localhost or the 127.0.0.1. The testpage shows, the admin page shows but the pollls not. ---

OMG! I got confused with the directory names. I created the urls.py in the: ~/projects/django4/mysite folder instead of: ~/projects/django4/mysite/mysite That was my failure! Thank you all for help. ---
