An ImportError exception happens when Python cannot import a particular module. Usually it's because that module doesn't appear in your PYTHONPATH environment variable.

So, in your case, you need to add the path to django.conf to your PYTHONPATH.

Edited: corrected typo--django.conf should be added to the path, not evennia.py, thanks Yuji.
