Hi Phil, What OS are you running on ? for ubuntu, you need to have an extra parameter while creating the venv like : $ virtualenv venv --distribute --no-site-packages
After that source the environment and pip install the packages pip install Django psycopg2 dj-database-url I would suggest you try the setup first on a blank directory. Another thing you may want to check is where the manage.py file is . e.g. I copied over the project that I was working on in a directory called 'website'. the manage.py is inside this directory instead of the root directory (from where your do source). So, in this case I run the server as : $ python website/manage.py runserver Vibhu On Sun, Dec 30, 2012 at 10:27 AM, Sam Lai <samuel....@gmail.com> wrote: > It looks like you haven't installed Django in your virtualenv.
