AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'index'

Question

I am trying the tutorial and m stuck on views. It says "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'index'"

My project/urls.py says

from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
   from django.contrib import admin
   admin.autodiscover()

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

In Views.py:

def index(request):
request HttpResponse("Hello, world. You're at the poll index.")

In app urls.py:

from django.conf.urls import patterns, url
from polls import views

ultrapatterns = patterns('', 
url(r'^$', views.index, name='index')
)

Kind advise is required with some short explanation so I can understand it.

Problem still persists. Now it says "ImportError: cannot import name Views". After I've tried to change 'views to Views in app/urls.py page. — user3114321

Please check the structure of your proyect: existence of __init__.py files for packages, correct use of package names (is it "polls" right), capitalization on names, and indentation (it doesn't look good in your question). — dsign

I got into this state when I didn't save my /polls/views.py file while following the tutorial 🙈
