18564	"Adding a python module with same name like Django project makes ""./manage.py syncdb"" raise ImproperlyConfigured, ""You haven't set the DATABASE_ENGINE setting yet."""	micha.pietsch@…	nobody	"Hi,

I set up a Django project for a helpdesk and called it ""helpdesk"". Didn't notice that when I put django-helpdesk into the python path of course I had two python modules with the same name. 

Trying to ""syncdb"" I got ImproperlyConfigured, ""You haven't set the DATABASE_ENGINE setting yet."" which is misleading when trying to find and fix such a small mistake like the bad module naming.
