19736	ViewDoesNotExist exception in views.py	rpq@…	nobody	"ViewDoesNotExist exception is being raised even though my view function is correctly placed in the django view (views.py file). Upon further inspection I discovered there was an AttributeError being raised in one of my imported modules (a forms.py call to a missing model form's model).  More testing revealed that raising an AttributeError anywhere in the django view *or* in any imported module before the view function that is executed generates a ViewDoesNotExist exception.

Here's my traceback...
