Where is django-admin?

[Pelle Pälsänger]

Hi!

I try to learn how to create web apps with django following https://pythonprogramming.net/django-web-development-with-python-intro/.

I have done:

c:\Python34\Lib\site-packages>git clone https://github.com/django/django.git

c:\Python34\Lib\site-packages>py -m pip install Django==1.11

Then django-admin startproject mysite fails because django-admin is not recognized. I cannot find it? Where is the result of the installation with django-admin?

I work with Windows10.

Hi!

I try to learn how to create web apps with django on windows10. 

I have downloaded django1.11 ($git clone https://github.com/django/django.git) and installed it ($py -m pip install Django==1.11).

I follow https://pythonprogramming.net/django-web-development-with-python-intro/

Then I try to start a project with django-admin startproject mySite, but django-admin is not recognized as a command. I search for django-admin but I cannot find it. Tell me why? Where should I find it, to add it to path!?

You might be more successful with a different tutorial. I recommend django girls for all beginner. It's great tutorial, the most beginner friendly I've seen. That's how I learned to use form in django.

https://tutorial.djangogirls.org/en/django_installation/

This link is where they show how to install django, with instructions about windows, win8 and win10.

OK, I have done installations of pip, myvenv and django. No problems.
Then I try django-admin.py startproject mysite . But nothing happens. No messages in the command window and no new directories in C:\Users\stig\djangogirls. The same problem as before following another tutorial. Does anyone have any clue?

Have you tried searching for django-admin.py?

It is a regular python file that should be installed in your virtual environment. I have never used django on windows, so I don't know where that would be. 

If you can find the file your path probably needs updating?

Regards,

Andréas

Yes I know where django-admin.py is. I put C:\Users\stig\djangogirls\myvenv\Scripts in my path. 

BR,

then you have to open your command line in the same path that django-admin.py is.

Yes, I have done that and made (myvenv) C:\Users\stig\djangogirls\myvenv\Scripts>django-admin.py startproject mysite . , but no djangogirls\mysite created.

My django-admin looks like below. Maybe something should be added to make it work?

#!c:\users\stig\djangogirls\myvenv\scripts\python.exe
from django.core import management

if __name__ == "__main__":
    management.execute_from_command_line()

Hi friends!

It worked when I run $python django-admin.exe startproject mysite, not with django-admin.py. This is Windows 10.1. Python 3.6.1.
