The exception you're getting: File "django/db/__init__.pyc", line 18, in ? OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: '/Users/rhudson/Desktop/ Django-0.95/dist/run.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.3/site- packages.zip/django/db/backends'This indicates that some part of django tries to do a directory listing of the directory containing django.db.backends. This can mean two things: one is that there are data files in that directory (configuration data, images, ...), the other is that some setup code tries to locate all modules in that package.
With py2app and py2exe python code isn't stored directly in the filesystem but in zipfiles. Any code that tries to access the location where python code as if it were the filesystem will therefore fail.
