#2592 closed enhancement (fixed)

[patch] tutorial01.txt should note that you can't name your site "site"

Description

My very first experience with Django, I executed the command :

django-admin.py startproject site

And the rest of the tutorial didn't work. I then deleted the site folder, and did it again, this time with a folder named "www" it worked that time.

Does this mean the site can't be named site?

I've updated the tutorial information for this and made a few other changes based on the comments on the tutorial 1 page.

Not sure what the policy is regarding outdated comments, but IMO they should be removed. The ones that I think are invalid or incorporated into this patch are:

	"ray August 14, 2006 at 6:20 a.m." (documented)
	"dave a. September 1, 2006 at 11:28 a.m." (documented)
	"Eddy Mulyono September 25, 2006 at 6:09 p.m." (misconfiguration)
	"Helmar October 1, 2006 at 9:31 a.m." (documented)
	"Maximillian Dornseif October 2, 2006 at 12:57 a.m." (all examples do this anyway)
	"Peter Silcock October 24, 2006 at 4:37 a.m." (site issue again)
	"Jeremy Dunck November 23, 2006 at 11:08 a.m." (site thing again)
	"Taum December 28, 2006 at 11:29 a.m." (site..)
