django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty.

Solution of the problem Just like the error says, you have no SECRET_KEY defined. You need to add one to your settings.py.
Django will refuse to start if SECRET_KEY is not set.
You can read more about this setting in the docs.

The SECRET_KEY can be just about anything...but if you want to use Django to generate one, you can do the following from the python shell:

from django.utils.crypto import get_random_string
chars = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789!@#$%^&*(-_=+)'
SECRET_KEY = get_random_string(50, chars)
print SECRET_KEY

Copy the SECRET_KEY to your settings file.
