ImportError: Settings cannot be imported, because environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is undefined.
Why this error?   
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE variable has been set up :
# +++++++++++ DJANGO +++++++++++
# To use your own django app use code like this:
import os
import sys
## assuming your django settings file is at '/home/myname/mysite/settings.py'    
path = '/home/sligozat/'
if path not in sys.path:
sys.path.append(path)
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'nettementvotre.settings'

Hi sligozat, 
The standard PythonAnywhere Python consoles don't run any code before launching. If you want to import your models you will need to open a bash console, navigate to your Mezzanine app directory and launch a Python process via manage.py. This loads a Python process with all correct environment already set up. So in a bash console type:
/home/sligozat/nettementvotre
python manage.py shell
Then in the resulting IPython shell you can do:
mezzanine.pages.models import Page
The second code is in your /var/www/wsgi.py file? That will work but it is only run when the mezzanine application is accessed as a web page.
