I started a new project in Django today (actually my first django project). Strangely when I run python manage.py runserver it does absolutely nothing. It just jumps to the next prompt. I'm using the most resent release which I installed using pip. It doesn't show anything when run. It doesn't show anything. NO error, No other messages, Nothing. And nothing happens too. I don't know if what I'm going to say next is useful or not. I initially had difficulty importing django, which I solved by adding a .pth file in the site-packages directory. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the dude but I think we have another problem. when I try to install it I get the following error :

Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
python-sqlite is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  hyphen-en-us libreoffice libreoffice-help-en-us mythes-en-us task-desktop
  x11-apps x11-session-utils xinit xorg
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n] y

Apparently you have touched your system's Python installation, which is a bad idea. If this is a virtual server and you don't have anything else in it, your best bet would be to reinstall it from scratch.

Actually this isn't a virtual server. Reinstalling everything is not a good idea. So what should I do? Any "harmless" way to fix this stuff without loosing my files. Loosing python packages would not be a problem. So what should I do now. Could you please tell each step so I don't screw up again. Thanks in advance.

Try

apt-get install --reinstall python

and see if it fixes the problem. If it doesn't, there are more drastic things you can do, but they can cripple your system.
