Django: Workspace becomes unavailable, and cannot find Manage.py

I'm not getting the hello world to display. It was previously just displaying the same screen as was shown before (i.e. "It worked...."). I started with a new workspace, and got the "workspace unavailable" message on my browser. When I tried to cd back to learning_site, and to run the server again, I couldn't find "manage.py".

Would appreciate the help!

Thanks for the reply! I actually seemed to get past that point - It seems as if you need to, at times, go to "file," and then "save all". I noticed that the guy doing the tutorial didn't need to do this, but it is sometimes needed. As an example, I was trying to execute:

python manage.py makemigrations courses

I got the response: "No changes detected in app 'courses'"

Once I saved all, though, it seemed to do the trick. Same thing seemed to fix the first issue of mine (i.e. going from default django page to the "Hello World" page that we imported into urls from views!
