This has been reported before, although it's not a universal problem (and it is Windows specific). Ticket #1507. The problem is that for some reason the script is not passing through the arguments to the real Python script and django-admin.py prints out the help screen when you run it with no args. I don't use Windows, so I have not suggestions on how to even go about debugging this. But I do know it's been before -- and not just in Django circles. There is/was a bug in Python's Sourceforge bug tracker about a similar problem. Hopefully somebody else might have some clues to give you or you can use the above few clues to spend a couple of quality hours with Google and try to track down the answer. I have dim memories of this, but it's been solved in other places. It's something to do with how Python is set up on your system, but beyond that I do not know. [If you do find the solution outside of this list, could you let us know or update ticket #1507. You're not the first and probably won't be the last to see this.] Regards, Malcolm --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
