Issues with "startproject"

[JJ Zolper]

Hello,

I was able to get the django-admin.py file to be located and I no
longer had an error with startproject not executing but there was a
random issue with the name of my file. At this point I have no idea
what the problem is.

Hi there,

you are missing the django-admin.py filename on your path. It ends
with "...\django\bin" which is a directory name, not a file name.

Script name may differ in distribution packages

If you installed Django using a Linux distribution's package manager (e.g. apt-get or yum) django-admin.py may have been renamed to django-admin. You may continue through this documentation by omitting .py from each command.

Refer: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/intro/tutorial01/

just try django-admin .

Thank you both. I was on the right track with the path name because in windows I don't think it would work without it but you did point out something good JirkaV about the actual file name. Sorta stupid on my part there so good catch. I did not use yum or ap-get and I checked my file names and they have the .py for python so I feel I need that everytime? I did it this time and it worked.

The real issue was I had thought you had to be in the python interpreter to run this command. I was within the interpreter but was still placing python at the front so I was basically shooting myself in the foot I suppose, any comments?

So as soon as I excited the interpreter and ran it that way I had no problems. Considering if I had just removed python it probably would have worked too but thats neither here nor there at this point. Anyways, I'm not sure if anyone else had done this but if you think this should be brought up let me know.
