Comment:

 The problem described here is essentially the same as #19344.

 We've tried various permutations of this in the past and none works for
 everyone :(

 To be fair, this is more a problem with the state of Python (and Python
 packaging) on Windows than with Django itself.

 i'm working on windows vista.
 i've installed activestate python 2.7, eclipse and pydev.
 i installed django with AS python package manager PYPM.

 your documentation is very easy to read - i really like the style of
 writing - but your 'hello world' project is awful!
 you tell people to put a command in the python shell that has about a
 50/50 chance of working - if the number of people inquiring on sites like
 stackoverflow about how to get django-admin.py working is anything to go
 by - and if it doesn't work, you suggest altering the os registry or
 'symlinking'!?? It is the FIRST THING PEOPLE DO!!!
 why not just give us a command that we can use? I've altered my registry
 with RegEdit, adding a key to the command or module in question and it
 still doesn't work. Why not just explain a temporary workround? I want to
 get a database/website cranked up and i'm wading through information about
 windows misinterpreting hashbang headers!
