If you are using python 3.4, then make sure you have Django 2.0 installed. With python 3.4, Django 2.1x throws the above error.

Run the command to install django: pip3 install Django==2.0.0

Verify the version: 

$ python -m django --version
2.0

$ python -V
Python 3.4.0

This should resolve your issue.
