pythonanywhere - ImportError: No module named 'django.contrib.sessions'

Question

This app works fine in my development environment, but on my PythonAnywhere instance there seems to be an issue with Django. Any idea what could cause this?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/cvcexport/genius/genius/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/django/apps/config.py", line 118, in create
    cls = getattr(mod, cls_name)
AttributeError: module 'django.contrib' has no attribute 'sessions'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

ImportError: No module named 'django.contrib.sessions'

This must have been an issue with this particular version of Django (1.10.5) as updating to 1.10.8 seems to have resolved it.
