It does matter, each Python installation is an 'Island'. Figure out which Python is default. # this gives you the version python -V # this tells you were it is (and around where setup.py install will put its files) which python If the default is /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/bin/python but you want to use /usr/local/python2.5/bin/python instead then you must make sure you run the correct python when doing installs and when running manage.py. you can use the full path every time /usr/local/python2.5/bin/python setup.py install or you can use an alias (I suggest adding to your .bashrc or similar file) alias python=/usr/local/python2.5/bin/python -- Norman J.
