How To Activate Django Server.

[Steve Burrus]

I am sorry that I hjave to ask about this, since I was recently able to do it, but I have to ask how do I go about going from successfully creating a new virtual environment to then being able to connect to the Django server? I have seen countless videos, on youtube, on how this is done but I simply  forgot.

python manage.py runserver

No i am sorry but python manage.py runserver doesn't work! I first tried to run it in a newly created virtual environment, it failed. so I just tried to run it in the Desktop folder but it still failed. I remember a command which had in it "django-admin.py" that I need to type right?

 "C:\Users\SteveB\Desktop>python manage.py runserver

python: can't open file 'manage.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory"

Steve,

You don't appear to be in the same folder as manage.py.

You need to change to the directory that holds your project files.

I AM able to create a new virtual env. but I gfet this error message when I try to create a new project! Do i possibly have to start the DjANgo server first then try to create the new project? It's so dumb that I very recently knew how to do all of this fairly easily but not now. What am I doing wrong anyway?

 

"(myenv) C:\Users\SteveB\Desktop\myenv>python .\Scripts\django-admin startproject myproj

python: can't open file '.\Scripts\django-admin': [Errno 2] No such file or directory"

Change the location of your virtual env. Desktop is convenient because
it is always there in front of you but it is treated in special ways by
the OS. Similarly with other special directories.

Create a new root for envs. For example C:\Users\SteveB\envs

You can always create a shortcut to ..\envs\myenv and leave it on your
Desktop.
