Thanks Oliver. I did as you suggest with setuptools, and it installed
properly, and I then installed Django. Super!
But I do seem to need pysqlite. Even though the 2.5 documentation says
that pysqlite has been added as "sqlite3", I get this when I try to
start up Django 0.95:
---------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Documents and Settings\John\My
Documents\tm\SVN\trunk\src\webcode\initial_data_load.py", line 3, in
<module>

settings.DATABASE_ENGINE, '', '', [''])

raise ImproperlyConfigured, "Error loading pysqlite2 module: %s" % e
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading pysqlite2
module: No module named pysqlite2
---------------------
The code in db\backends\sqlite3\base.py does this:
--------
try:
from pysqlite2 import dbapi2 as Database
except ImportError, e:
from django.core.exceptions import ImproperlyConfigured
raise ImproperlyConfigured, "Error loading pysqlite2 module: %s" % e
--------
It seems a little screwy for a file in a directory called "sqlite3" to
do an import from "pysqlite2". But that's what it does.
Something's confused here with pysqlite, pysqlite2, pysqlite3... I've
about reached my time limit on this experiment, so I'm going to revert
to Python 2.4. :-(
Thanks again.
John
