FYI, I've encountered that same error recently with other Django projects (not Snowy, and not the same server as Snowy, but Django elsewhere). As far as I can tell, it happens when I've upgraded Python somehow via apt-get upgrade, yet Apache hasn't been restarted. A simple Apache restart has fixed that error for me multiple times. It's as if Debian's aptitude isn't aware that an Apache restart is required after a Python upgrade.

So, on Debian, '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart' has fixed that error for me -- related to running Django elsewhere, not Snowy specifically.

Hope that helps.
