Exception Type: ImportError at /
Exception Value: No module named urls

The very confusing part is that I can change the home/django/django_project/urls.py file to this: 

from django.conf.urls import include, url
from django.contrib import admin

urlpatterns = [
    #url(r'^', include('polls.urls')),
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
]

With my apps url file commented out and it will load the default django page, so the server seems to be working but breaks when I include my app. It is properly installed in settings.py. Also, if I run it locally in development everything works fine.

@twboatler

Are you following the getting started tutorial here? if no try to follow it and see if the problem still persists

Also one more thing the first url pattern should be url(r'^polls/', include('polls.urls')), not url(r'^', include('polls.urls')),

hope this helps

    I'm loosely following that, while trying to implement my own stuff for a site I'm trying to build. That's probably what has created this problem.

    I'd like http://[ip address] to point to my home page for the polls app, which is why I did url(r'^', include('polls.urls')), as opposed to what you suggested.

    But I did try your suggestion and got the same error:
