clonesatchmo windows 7 and invalid skeleton directory

[E]

Good afternoon. I am using windows 7 and python 2.6. I have installed
django
1.1.2 and satchmo in a virtual env. I am able to import django and
import satchmo from a python console.

When I attempt to use clonesatchmo, I get the error "invalid skeleton
directory". Any ideas?

Are you passing the full path to the skeleton directory?

clonesatchmo.py --skel=/path/to/skeleton

Chris,

I have tried a few path variants.... some of which return invalid
skeleton directory
others result in Skeleton dir does not contain localsite subdirectory.

Am I able to use windows paths? such as D:\Storage\WorkingProjects
\satchmo\etc ?
My virtual_env with scripts and lib is D:\Storage\WorkingProjects
\satchmo\

It should be something like d:\Storage\WorkingProjects\skeleton

Does that work?

-Chris

[E]

If I use something like that without having created the skeleton dir
first, I get an error: Invalid skeleton directory... If I create the
dir and a localsite subdirectory... then I get settings_content =
open(main_settings_file, 'r').read()
IOError: [Errno 2] no such file or directory: './store\\settings.py'

Thanks for your help, I really do appreciate it.

The skeleton directory is supposed to be included in your Satchmo install.

See it here on bitbucket -
http://www.bitbucket.org/chris1610/satchmo/src/tip/satchmo/projects/skeleton/

Does that make sense?

-Chris

[E]

It certainly does. That did the trick.... I re-clones the satchmo
install..... and provided the path to the skeleton as you said...
works perfectly.
I futzed up the source directory out of ignorance... not knowing that
the path in question is a source dir... not destination dir. Sheepish
grin here.

Thanks for your time Chris!
