I have made the changes to mysite/urls.py and polls/urls.py exactly as they demonstrate and I have run the server command:

Put this import in your poll/views.py before using HttpResponse.
from django.http import HttpResponse

in your polls/views.py
By default is :
from django.shortcuts import render
change to:
from django.shortcuts import render,HttpResponse
this will call the HttpResponse class

In my case the import was there, but when I called HttpsResponse I called it with small h as a typo instead of the capital H
from django.http import HttpResponse
def home(request):
return HttpResponse("Hello!") #==> This one was with httpResponse so the same error been received.

I had imported HttpResponse and still got this error.
If you use Apache server as your primary server for web, try restarting Apache and reloading the page.

For me it was because I used singe quotes (‘) instead of double quotes («)

- Check your import statement.
- Check your function. I had «HttpsResponse» instead of «HttpResponse»
Good luck.

This just reiterates the accepted answer from 2017.

This is a typo that other people probably won’t make. At best it’s perhaps comment material. OP also doesn’t have quotes of either type in their scenario, so this is also at best unrelated to the problem.

This just reiterates the accepted answer from 2017 except highlighting that you made a typo. At best it should be a comment about the command being case-sensitive, but that’s a rather generous take.

Python – Calling a function of a module by using its name (a string)
Assuming module foo with method bar:
import foo
method_to_call = getattr(foo, 'bar')
result = method_to_call()
You could shorten lines 2 and 3 to:
result = getattr(foo, 'bar')()
if that makes more sense for your use case.
You can use getattr in this fashion on class instance bound methods, module-level methods, class methods… the list goes on.
Python – Getting the class name of an instance
Have you tried the __name__ attribute of the class? ie type(x).__name__ will give you the name of the class, which I think is what you want.
>>> import itertools
>>> x = itertools.count(0)
>>> type(x).__name__
'count'
If you’re still using Python 2, note that the above method works with new-style classes only (in Python 3+ all classes are «new-style» classes). Your code might use some old-style classes. The following works for both:
x.__class__.__name__
