Re: Newbie trying to install django-trunk from svn on Ubuntu 7.10
Hmm, I thought the two tricks will get my Django working, but instead I got this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/django-projects$ django-admin startproject myproject The program 'django-admin' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install python-django bash: django-admin: command not found Shall I install as it says and just do svn-update?!

He installed from trunk. http://antoniocangiano.com/2007/12/26/installing-django-with-postgresql-on-ubuntu/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

PYTHONPATH and PATH. They are two completely different environment variables. PYTHONPATH is only for Python in locating Python modules and PATH is to locate executable files in the shell. export PATH=/path/to/django/bin:$PATH Also, it appears you are relying on a relative path. I would highly recommend you adjust the PYTHONPATH and how you setup the PATH to use an absolute path. export PYTHONPATH=/home/user/django-trunk -- Brian Rosner http://oebfare.com --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

I have tried several variations on PYTHONPATH. With echo @PYTHONPATH django-trunk I can import django in the Python interpreter, but django-admin.py startproject mysite gets this error message: bash: django-admin.py: command not found With echo @PYTHONPATH django-trunk:django-trunk/django/bin:django-trunk/django/bin/django- admin.py same error message.

The bottom line is that Django only needs to be in your PYTHONPATH. By default Python already has its site-packages directory on the PYTHONPATH which is where this stems from. You can define the PYTHONPATH at anytime. Once it is there it is completely installed. You will want to get the django-admin.py file into your PATH so that you can easily access it with referencing it on the filesystem. It is useful to have Django installed in site-packages if you don't need to be switching between versions very often or it is a production server, for example. -- Brian Rosner http://oebfare.com --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Newbie trying to install django-trunk from svn on Ubuntu 7.10
Following http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/install/ I'm stuck at the steps of setting up the symlinks to django. Step 3. ln -s `pwd`/django-trunk/django SITE-PACKAGES-DIR/django Step 4. ln -s `pwd`/django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py /usr/local/ bin One possible problem: not thinking very fast, I ended up checking out django-trunk into my home folder. Is that a mistake? Where shd it be? I tried several variations on Steps 3 and 4: sudo ln -s /django-trunk/django /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ django sudo ln -s /django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py /usr/local/bin sudo ln -s django-trunk/django /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django sudo ln -s django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py /usr/local/bin And also the same variations with passwords included inline instead using sudo. All of them resulted in broken links. Any clues? I did get django-trunk onto my PYTHONPATH, thanks to help from Brett Parker, so now when I type import django into the Python interpreter, I no longer get an error message. In other words, according to the instructions, django is actually installed, at least to some extent. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
