Re: Unable to get python manage.py runserver to work

You need to create a project before you do anything. The docs and tutorials show you how to so it .

You *MUST* install django before trying to use it.
You will need to create a real project using django-admin.py, instead
of trying to run manage.py from the application template stubs.

Please take a look at the tutorial intro, which describes how to install django

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/intro/install/

Next, look at the tutorial itself, which describes how to start your
first project.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/intro/tutorial01/

These steps are not optional.

Cheers

Tom

I have it down to this level, where I can import django from inside of python:
$ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 11 2012, 08:34:23)
[GCC 4.4.6 20120305 (Red Hat 4.4.6-4)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import django
>>> print(django.get_version())
1.5.1

Ultimately, this is what I'd like to have running on my machine.
