Installing Django on Linux-Derbian using virtualBox on Windows 7 Machine
Hello, I am new to the Django world and I was wondering if someone can help me step by step on how to install the Django on my Linux program. I've read some tutorial guides and I am abit lost and faced some issues. I am currently on linux and need to know how to add packages, and things in order to run the Django. Please contact me.

Re: Installing Django on Linux-Derbian using virtualBox on Windows 7 Machine
Right now, I am having problem with the installation of linux ( I will try to figure that out if not, will contact you about that). I do have a problem with installing the Django on Linux. I am new to the Django world, so I've already downloaded the Django to my usb drive. Is there a certain way I have to install it into Linux--Derbian? I also have Python 2.5.2 (before I've installed linux), so do I also need a certain way to install python in linux ( if it is not there)?

You can probably just run "sudo apt-get install python-django" from the command line. -- Michael On Thu, 2011-01-20 at 13:26 -0800, Kimberly wrote: > Hello, I am new to the Django world and I was wondering if someone can > help me step by step on how to install the Django on my Linux program. > I've read some tutorial guides and I am abit lost and faced some > issues.

Re: Installing Django on Linux-Derbian using virtualBox on Windows 7 Machine
But in order to do that, don't I need to have the Django source file somewhere in my computer/ or in my case.. I've downloaded the Django tar file to my usb flash drive? The command you gave me, that works in the linux world, right? Like I said, I am new to this Djando materials.

Re: Installing Django on Linux-Derbian using virtualBox on Windows 7 Machine
Debian maintains a repository of software that is available to download and install easily. The fastest way to do this is from the command line. "apt-get" is the program that will do this for you, you just give it the name of the program you want, and it will download and install it for you automatically. In the case of Django, you probably just need to run "sudo apt-get install python-django", and it will find django in the repository, plus whatever dependencies it has, like python, and then install them for you. If apt-get finishes running without any errors, then you have django installed. If you're curious, the "sudo" part of the command just says to run it with administrator privileges. It will ask you for your user's password. -- Michael On Thu, 2011-01-20 at 15:46 -0600, Kimberly Harvey wrote: > But in order to do that, don't I need to have the Django source file > somewhere in my computer/ or in my case..

On Jan 20, 1:47 pm, Kimberly Harvey wrote: > I cannot install the Ubuntu, I have to use Derbian for work purposes. > Ok, I have some suggestions, as someone said this is not a linux support group. Before you start working with django, you should take this one step at a time and get to know your working environment first. As a newbie to linux, you should be going over the debian manuals [1]. That link will take you through the installing debian on a i386 system. With virtualbox the instructions are basically the same with some minor vbox specific instructions (suggest reading up on vbox docs for how to mount the iso, setup the environment, and configuring networking). Once you get through this and you have a working install, do NOT jump in with django at all, just don't, you'll end up with a few headaches. Learn your environment, learn the basics of using the operating system, learn how to admin it (no need to be an expert, but you can learn how to use the operating system and manage files and create/ delete directories and permisions, understand what a root user and your user and then move to package installation and how apache works with the debian system. linux.org lessons for beginners[2] will help (and also has a debian install guide, not sure how outdated the install guide is actually). The debian admin guide[3] will help you with some of the more advanced techniques of managing packages and apache. At this point if you still have problems it'll be best to direct them to the debian lists and the debian irc channels. If you can't take time to learn your environment like this because your boss is demanding you do something django _NOW_... find a new boss or explain to him he's putting you in an unfair position (unless you bullshitted him into believing you're up to this point of understanding with linux/debian, then you're s.o.l.). Now when you get to here, you're ready to install django and have a great understanding on how to do that already with apt-get (as the suggestions given in other replies about apt-get are correct but way above where you are at right now) >From this point on if you have problems with django, come on back and we'll be glad to help with most issues (including linux specific stuff).

Re: Installing Django on Linux-Derbian using virtualBox on Windows 7 Machine
Thanks for the tips and advices. I still believe Django can be run on the linux-Debian version. There are some updated Django which I've already saved on my usb flash drive which I will soon run some commands on the linux as some other people has advised me to do so. The person wants me to learn more about django but NOT right away. However, I like to pick up on things quick. I am getting the hang of some of the materials I've read but it takes some time for me to fully grasp it since I am new to this. If any more advices regarding to commands, let me know. Some people sent different commands on how to install the Django/ Django-Python... I will test it out and see what happens.
