Trying to run a django project and getting errors

Time:02-10

So I am about to start working on a project with Python Django (never worked with these before). However, before starting I want to run the application.

My manager gave me the files on which I should be working and there is the manage.py file already created. Now I have installed Python, pip and django and am trying to run this with the command python manage.py runserver

And I get this long error which I am not sure what is all about considering that this whole project is already working on the computer of my manager and is even uploaded to a host.

Now I am not sure what any of this is considering that I haven't started learning or messing with the code yet. But it's particularly strange to me considering that the code is supposed to be working.

Is this error maybe not related to code or related to something else? Any ideas and tips on what this is and how to fix it would be extremely appreciated!
