That error message looks like Windows to me. try adding the word python at the start of that command.
If you are indeed on Windows, how did you install Python? The easiest one I've used is the ActiveState's ActivePython distribution for Windows; sets everything up properly, including proper file extension support so the your command will just work. http://www.activestate.com/activepython On 11 June 2010 15:57, Kenneth Gonsalves <[email protected]> wrote: > On Friday 11 June 2010 02:50:55 JRMAbock wrote: >> I am trying to start a project by entering into the command line. >> >> directory> django-admin.py startproject mysite >> >> after I enter it I get the return >> >> django-admin.py is not recognized as an internal or external command >> operable program or batch file >> > > what distro are you using? > -- > Regards > Kenneth Gonsalves > Senior Associate > NRC-FOSS at AU-KBC > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
