It looks like you have your virtual environment activated, but some of your dependencies might be missing (django perhaps). When you installed Arches did you use this command:
pip install arches --no-binary :all: If you just ran "pip install arches" then you'll be missing all of your dependencies. Hopefully that's the issue.
