Re: Suddenly "django-admin.py startproject" not working

[Bill Freeman]

What OS?  Is the file django-admin.py on your path?  Is it marked as
executable?  Try:

  python django-admin.py startproject mysite

Re: django-admin.py startproject not working

[Brad Reardon]

Another tip is to add *.py to the PATHEXT variable or the like. That will allow 
the script to be found on the path. I'm not sure if that's the right variable 
name, but check it out.

Re: django-admin.py startproject not working

[codegal]

Thanks.  Good pointer for running python scripts in the future - will
follow as a matter of practice.

As it turned out in this case, I just wasn't providing the full path.
I had set up a .pth file, and had tried copying django-admin.py into
the main Python directory, but it turned out that directory is not
assumed, and neither the PYTHONPATH nor the environmental variables
path gets checked when Python runs the command, so this (full path to
django-admin.py) is what finally worked for me:

python C:/Python27/Scripts/django-admin.py startproject mysite

Vista is very picky about permissions. Try running the command prompt as an
administrator.

django-admin.py startproject not working

[codegal]

I'm trying to create my first Django project, and I must be missing
something really basic. I'm using Windows Vista, and have installed
Python 2.7 and Django 1.2.3, put the location of django-admin.py into
my PATH variable, and navigated via command line to the location where
I want to create a project. I'm entering:

django-admin.py startproject cms

at the command line. I don't get an error, but I also don't get any
processing back - just a new prompt, and no project created in the
directory. Can't find any posts on the web regarding this issue...

Thanks!
