Hi ! I’m following the django course from Mosh. I’m 30 minutes in and facing an issue.

When i try to run the server with “python3 manage.py runserver”, it gives me the error "No module named ‘playground’. Playground is the name of the app we are creating in the tutorial.

I tried, as i saw in another forum, to install Playground, it took 20 minutes and still gives me the same error.

Here is the ling to the tutorial that i’m following: [Django Tutorial for Beginners [2021] - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHux0gMZ3Eg&t=1686s)

Someone has a clue ?  
Thanks a lot !!

Have you entered ‘playground’ in INSTALLED\_APPS list in settings.py?

I got the same errors and I found out I didn’t add the comma “,” at the end of “silk” in the INSTALLED\_APPS list. So the code would look like this:

INSTALLED\_APPS = [  
‘django.contrib.admin’,  
‘django.contrib.sessions’,  
‘django.contrib.auth’,  
‘django.contrib.contenttypes’,  
‘django.contrib.messages’,  
‘django.contrib.staticfiles’,  
‘django\_filters’,  
‘corsheaders’,  
‘rest\_framework’,  
‘djoser’,  
**‘silk’,**  
‘playground’,  
‘debug\_toolbar’,  
‘store’,  
‘tags’,  
‘likes’,  
‘core’,  
]

In my case the problem was in the name of the app ‘playgroud’ instead of ‘playground’

so, i changed the name in apps.py file :

from django.apps import AppConfig

class PlaygroudConfig(AppConfig):  
default\_auto\_field = ‘django.db.models.BigAutoField’  
name = ‘playground’
