[FIXED] django error cannot import name 'RemovedInDjango30Warning'

Issue

Guys im fairly new to Django and I just started working on a personal project and decided that ill-use pycharm (i think its related to the error, or not).

when I run python manage.py runserverI get the error posted below. I did a bit of googling and looks like its caused by inconsistency with Django versions.

I currently have Django 3.0 and I checked both globally and in the venv.

I tried to start a project outside of py charm and im running into the same issue. idk what I need to do to start using Django again. Did anyone run into this? Is this because of pycharm? If so what can I do to fix the issue?

django.template.library.InvalidTemplateLibrary: Invalid template library specified. ImportError raised when trying to load 'django.contrib.admin.templatetags.admin_static': cannot import name 'RemovedInDjango30Warning'

Solution

Comment out the following line:

from django.utils.deprecation import RemovedInDjango30Warning

in the files below:

python3.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/templatetags/admin_static.py
python3.6/site-packages/django/contrib/staticfiles/templatetags/staticfiles.py
