Lerning django 2.1, having problems with tutorial

[funkytwig]

I have done a load of googeling but can't quite get the tutorial at https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/intro/tutorial01/ working:(.

So my project looks like this.

'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'polls'
]
...

urls.py

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path

from . import views

urlpatterns = [
path('polls/', include('polls.urls')),
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
]

views.py

from django.shortcuts import render

# Create your views here.

from django.http import HttpResponse

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

I can runserver but get 'Exception Value: Empty module name'. The traceback is below but i am stuck;(.

Error:

Actually the above is not right, it seems the problem is actually Internal Server Error: /favicon.ico. The traceback from the console is below.

So where do I put favicon.ico in settings.py there is "STATIC_URL = '/static/'" but there is no 'static' directory in filesystem.

Error:
Internal Server Error: /favicon.ico
