Uable to run manage.py runserver in Django

Question

I am not able to start manage.py runserver. I am using a Cassandra database and I have imported all the required modules. I am trying to run quite basic application.

I am running python 2.7 on windows 10. Here is the error I am getting:

C:\Users\Aditya\Desktop\try_cassandra\try_cass>manage.py runserver
C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django\db\utils.py:238: RemovedInDjango19Warning: In Django 1.9 the TEST_NAME connection setting will be moved to a NAME entry in the TEST setting
  self.prepare_test_settings(alias)

C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\django\db\utils.py:238: RemovedInDjango19Warning: In Django 1.9 the TEST_NAME connection setting will be moved to a NAME entry in the TEST setting
  self.prepare_test_settings(alias)

And here are my database settings in settings.py:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django_cassandra_engine',
        'NAME': 'db',
        'TEST_NAME': 'test_db',
        'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
        'OPTIONS': {
            'replication': {
                'strategy_class': 'SimpleStrategy',
                'replication_factor': 1
            }
        }
    }
}

Try removing values listed in INSTALLED_APPS is settings.py

Removing django.contrib.staticfiles did the trick for me or place django_cassandra_engine at the top of the INSTALLED_APPS list
