Re: please help can't start a new project

Maybe you could try creating a batch file in the directory where you
you are going to keep your projects and call it NewProject.bat put
this inside

:********************************Start Batch
File*****************************************************
: Below replace c:\python27/lib/site-packages/django/bin/ with the
path tho your django-admin.py file
python c:\python27/lib/site-packages/django/bin/django-admin.py
startproject %1

:Below replace c:/django with the path to the folder where you keep
your projects (no ending forward slash)
SET PYTHONPATH=c:/django

:Below replace c:/django/ with the path to the folder where you keep
your projects (this time with an ending forward slash)
SET DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=c:/django/%1
CD %1
:***********************************End Batch
File*****************************************************

Run the batch like this from a command line window:
NewProject student

I don't know if this is the best answer, but it is one that worked for
me.
