I am running unbuntu 12.04
I am a Django noob. I have an inherited a project based on askbot - but don't know how to get it running locally on django to test it. In short - I would like to install askbot in a virtualenv instance. I have read many (web) pages with suggestions and have tried installing several times with a variety of errors. Is there no step-by-step guide for those who are not django/python/open source gurus? If there isn't a step by step - at least a general order - something like: -create virtualenv instance -activate virtualenv instance -install django in virtualenv -install postgresql -startproject -clone askbot-devel code from github -cd into askbot directory and python setup.py develop -???? I tried working with Pinax, too, just for testing. I don't understand how to get an existing package running locally on Django to play with it and customize it. I would really like to hear if there are general (or specific to askbot) steps. TIA -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
