Hi everyone

First timer,

Basically what the post says; I have installed it, tried running it through the Terminal of the MacBook Pro I have. But it did not recognise any module called Django.

So I went online and did a bit of digging and realised I have the folder (as shown from screenshot attached) but not any clear instruction (for me anyway) on what to do next?

I am genuinely stuck and would greatly appreciate any help at all to get up and running!

Thank you

LSG

Gracias Daniel,
Unfortunately I do not have the pleasure of understanding Spanish. I have kept looking around with other (English) YouTube videos whilst awaiting further replies but the videos all seem to be really far ahead and have Django already up and running.

Still stuck :S

You sure you are using python3.7 to run the django local server?. It will be like "python3.7 manage.py runserver". If your system contains more than one version of python ,then it is good to run server like this. Also make confirm that django is installed for python3.7

Good point you brought up.

I had a look and realised that although I installed python3, I also have python2 since my terminal acknowledges a python2. I had to input in the terminal if python3 was installed and it confirmed it too.

Am I missing something here?

Do I need to delete one python (obviously the older version) in order so django/terminal/laptop/software ONLY recognises python3.

Also, it IS unusual since I recall first time ever downloading python (2 months ago) I recall clicking ONLY on the python3, not python2.

Many thanks

Right so update, thank you btw

I managed to change it so python3 is default by using 'alias'? and echo PATH(?) to save it.

With all that said and done, I was ready to start django (having confirmed both python and django are update and compatible with each others' versions).


I got to this bit:


The development server

Let’s verify your Django project works. Change into the outer mysite directory, if you haven’t already, and run the following commands:

$ python manage.py runserver


I entered this on my Terminal (Mac). But it came out with an error. As a beginner, I'm aware I'm missing something very obvious but cannot figure out, with the youtube and information around where.

What am I missing here and where should I enter that above command?
