Question

i set following http://django-grappelli.readthedocs.org/en/2.6.3/index.html

settings.py

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        'grappelli',
        'django.contrib.admin',

That sounds like you've forgotten a comma, and accidentally concatenated two strings: 'grappelli' 'django.contrib'. Check your settings and urls files very carefully for missing commas. — user707650
It works for me too! However, accept the answer as correct please, because I got confused that it was not a sound solution. Thank you! — raratiru

Kindly set the following settings in settings.py file:-

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'grappelli',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
)

    MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.SessionAuthenticationMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
    'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
)

I hope above solution will resolve your issue.
