django-admin creates infrastructure required for your project, and there should be more than 3 files.

On *nix systems django-admin is py script with shebang, but due to windows command processor limitations (cmd) on windows there is executable file which actually calls django-admin.

So, you should open cmd console and type "c:\Python27\Scripts\django-admin.exe startproject mysite". (I believe you have python on c:\Python27\ and Django is installed).

i have django installed correctly i checked witht he version test
my python folder is on c:\

#!c:\users\radcliff\appdata\local\enthought\canopy32\user\scripts\python.exe
from django.core import management

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

this is what is in the django-admin.py

this file in the beginning was int the folder after the hash.
is this command: "django-admin startproject mysite"
supposed to run another way????
like from every folder i am currently working at the cmd?

[george.v...@gmail.com]

ok i put the folder that the django-admin file is in at the variables path of windows
i hope that deals with later problems with files

[luis zarate]

what is the output of django-admin --version ?

Instructions:
 1) open cmd
2) change your current directory to your work directory
3) run django-admi --version
4) copy and paste the output  here.

The output will be like "1.7.2"

the verson is 1.7.6.... why?

[Luis Zárate]

Your python configuration is ok. so I guest you have someone of this problem.
 - Your work path has spaces and python confuse with them.
 - Your system mimetype for .py use notepad++ for open it.

I don't know if this solve your issue but I think that check this prevent you a headache

I test doing a simple project and this is my result.

$ django-admin startproject mysite
$ tree
.
└── mysite
    ├── manage.py
    └── mysite
        ├── __init__.py
        ├── settings.py
        ├── urls.py
        └── wsgi.py

2 directories, 5 files
