Thanks for downloading Django. |

To install it, make sure you have Python 2.3 or greater installed. Then run |
|---|
| 4 |
this command from the command prompt: |
|---|
| 5 |
|
|---|
| 6 |
python setup.py install |
|---|
| 7 |
|
|---|
| 8 |
Note this requires a working Internet connection if you don't already have the |
|---|
| 9 |
Python utility "setuptools" installed. |
|---|
| 10 |
|
|---|
| 11 |
AS AN ALTERNATIVE, you can just copy the entire "django" directory to Python's |
|---|
| 12 |
site-packages directory, which is located wherever your Python installation |
|---|
| 13 |
lives. Some places you might check are: |
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 |
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages (Unix, Python 2.4) |
|---|
| 16 |
/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages (Unix, Python 2.3) |
|---|
| 17 |
C:\\PYTHON\site-packages (Windows) |
|---|
| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 |
This second solution does not require a working Internet connection; it |
|---|
| 20 |
bypasses "setuptools" entirely. |
