You probably forgot to uncomment one of the lines in the settings.py:

For example:

Add "django.contrib.admin" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting. Run python manage.py syncdb. Since you have added a new application to INSTALLED_APPS, the database tables need to be updated.

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.admin', #<----      !!!!! Uncomment
    'mysite.polls'
)

And in your urls.py: (Although it looks like you've done this step already)

# Uncomment the next two lines to enable the admin:
from django.contrib import admin #<----                     !!!!! Uncomment
admin.autodiscover() #<----                                 !!!!! Uncomment

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    # Example:
    # (r'^mysite/', include('mysite.foo.urls')),

    # Uncomment the admin/doc line below and add 'django.contrib.admindocs'
    # to INSTALLED_APPS to enable admin documentation:
    # (r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls')),

    # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
    (r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)), #<----          !!!!! Uncomment
)
