ImportError: Could not import settings 'krisdigitx.settings' (Is it on sys.path? Does it have syntax errors?): No module named krisdigitx.settings
krisdigitx-Satellite-Pro-L450D django-tagging # 

I have exported the environment variable on the commandline

declare -x DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=”krisdigitx.settings”

but i still get the error that the module cannot be found.
