Hmm, try opening up a python interpreter and importing "portal.settings". Does that work? If not there are two likely candidates: 1. It isn't enough for 'portal' to have an __init__.py file, it needs to be on your pythonpath. Check your pythonpath (import sys;print sys.path) 2. There is a syntax error in your settings file. To check for this you could just run "python /path/to/your/settings.py" from the shell. See if that exits with errors.
