Looks like you're on a Mac? Is it Max OS X 10.5? If so then I think you are hitting this: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/7414 Django code expects its data (templates, css, etc.) files to be in the same file tree as the code, but it seems setup on Mac OS X 10.5 places them in a completely different place. If this is what you are hitting then somehow you need to get the admin's 'templates' and 'media' trees from wherever they've been placed (there's a likely path in that ticket, or you could just copy them from the un-tarred tarfile) over to inside the same tree as the Django Python code, looks like that is: /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/admin in your case.
