#11986: Mac install directions should mention sudo ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: r...@panix.com | Owner: nobody Status: new | Milestone: Component: Documentation | Version: 1.1 Keywords: | Stage: Unreviewed Has_patch: 0 | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ You say:
''Mac OS X permissions If you’re using Mac OS X, you may see the message “permission denied” when you try to run django-admin.py startproject. This is because, on Unix- based systems like OS X, a file must be marked as “executable” before it can be run as a program. To do this, open Terminal.app and navigate (using the cd command) to the directory where django-admin.py is installed, then run the command chmod +x django-admin.py.'' Note that the "chmod +x django-admin.py" command will probably need "sudo", which should be mentioned. Of course, on wonders why the installer couldn't do this automatically, but that's another question. -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/11986> Django <http://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
