Dear All, Thanks for the help. I have cleaned out the eggs and used deactivate/ activate and now I can browse http://127.0.0.1:8080
eggs are new to me, a know-how gap that needs to be closed :) In case someone is interested how it worked in the end: Removed egg files from :/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages r...@eee:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages# rm -rf *egg (did not check the timestamps as Diez recommended! ) this wrecked the vitualenv installation On Debian do: aptitude reinstall setup tools, virtualenv, distribute #do the following as non-root cd $HOME deactivate virtualenv --no-site-packages tg21b2 cd tg21b2 source bin/activate easy_install -i http://www.turbogears.org/2.1/downloads/current/index tg.devtools # ensure paster and python use same virtualenv deactivate source bin/activate paster quickstart tg21tut cd tg21tut python setup.py develop -i http://www.turbogears.org/2.1/downloads/current/index # ensure paster and python use same virtualenv deactivate source bin/activate paster setup-app development.ini paster serve development.ini Regards Ernst On Sep 7, 8:02 pm, "Diez B.
