Anyone know why it doesn't find django module?
That generally means it can't find the django module as you suggest. Try this from the Python interpreter: >>> import sys >>> sys.path That should give you a list something like the following: ['', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python26.zip', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/plat-darwin', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/ 2.6/lib/python2.6/plat-mac', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/plat-mac/lib-scriptpackages', '/Library/ Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/lib-tk', '/ Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/lib- old', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/ lib-dynload', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/ python2.6/site-packages', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/PIL'] In it you can see the directory "site-packages" if you then look in that directory (here is mine)... Nicks-Computer:~ nick2$ ls '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages' MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg PIL PIL.pth README beancount beancount-1.0-py2.6.egg-info django ...you should be able to see your django installation. If not then it hasn't been installed properly and you'll need to give more info as to what steps you're taking, such as the output from the above. The basic idea is really only that the main django file (the one that contains eg contrib, auth, db, etc.) is in that site-packages directory and therefore findable.
