I finally found a decent solution that worked for me. BitNami has a free download called DjangoStack (http://bitnami.org/stack/djangostack) that apparently installs the sqlite libs, apache, and a few other things under c:\prog...\bitnami django stack\* along with a folder under your user profile where you can drop your django projects. With a few tweaks to an INI file, you can access your projects at localhost:8080/myproject/. The installer is dead simple and includes options for Postgres, MySQL, and Sqlite. Definitely eases the install for the end-user. After installing the stack, I can give them an ini file to copy into the c:\prog... folder and tell them to unzip my file into the django projects folder and reboot. I doubt I'll run into dependency issues as most of the django apps don't require compiling--and the package already includes Sqlite and PIL. -A -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
