Django Tutorial (Database setup) Question

[Cai Gengyang]

I believe I am already in the same directory that contains manage.py , but I still get an error (a syntax error). Checked the lines in settings.py and can't find anything wrong with them either. Posted my entire code below :


CaiGengYangs-MacBook-Pro:~ CaiGengYang$ cd mysite folder

CaiGengYangs-MacBook-Pro:mysite CaiGengYang$ ls

manage.py	mysite

CaiGengYangs-MacBook-Pro:mysite CaiGengYang$ python manage.py migrate

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "manage.py", line 10, in <module>

    execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 338, in execute_from_command_line

    utility.execute()

    settings.INSTALLED_APPS

    self._setup(name)

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 44, in _setup

    self._wrapped = Settings(settings_module)

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 92, in __init__

    mod = importlib.import_module(self.SETTINGS_MODULE)

  File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/importlib/__init__.py", line 37, in import_module

    __import__(name)

  File "/Users/CaiGengYang/mysite/mysite/settings.py", line 45

    'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',

                                              ^

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
