Hi,
This is the way I have it set up my osx
$ sudo pip install virtualenv
$ virtualenv --distribute pytho_projects
$ source python_projects/bin/activate
$ (python projects) pip install django
$ django-admin.py startproject myblog
and that should get you past that. using virtualenv just makes it a
lot more clean and organized imo. Let me know if that helped you out some.
+1 on that. pip is the only way to go.
And I would suggest installing PostgreSQL from MacPorts or an equivalent
package manager to give yourself more control over your database
versioning and contents. Otherwise you are relying on whatever is in
Apple's current update which may change or be different from what you
might need for reasons of your own.
I've also installed python and related packages from MacPorts so then
the virtualenv will point to that installation when it initializes. That
also gives you more control over versioning.

Hello,
I am a Django beginner, and am trying to get Django set up in
Mac OS
X. I am going through the tutorial, but getting stuck very early
(essentially at the beginning). I have installed Python and
Django.
The next instruction is to enter the command "django-admin.py
startproject mysite". When I do this, I get the following error:
File "<stdin>", line 1
django-admin.py startproject mysite
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Does anybody know why I am getting this error? The tutorial
has a
note for Mac OS X users explaining what to do if you get a
"permission
denied" error, but that is obviously not what is happening to me.
Thank you for any help!
