Hi
I'm using Ubuntu Lucid 10.04. I had previously installed Django 1.1.1 via
the repos. I downloaded the django 1.2 tarball. Ran "sudo setup.py
install"
after extracting, and it seems the installation went fine. However, when
I
run the dev server with my old project, it still shows as django version
1.1.1. Suggestions
Thanks
Hi,
my advice is not to use distribution packages (you can not use multiple
versions, older package versions, ...) but use virtualenv to create
virtual environment and there install current Django version (or any
version you want to) with easy_install or pip. You will have to google and
read about these tools, then uninstal distribution package (and your
django 1.2 installation) and play with. These tools are very easy to use.
And one more thing, read something about python path, eggs, *.pth files,
you will need this knowledge to understand how this whole import machinery
works, else it will be very confusing.
