I, too have just reloaded my xampp installation. I'm able to get the first few steps of the install per http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/tutorial01/, but when I start the 'runserver' I get the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Projects/SSG$ python manage.py runserver Validating models... Skipping validation because things aren't configured properly. Django version 0.96, using settings 'SSG.settings' Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/ Quit the server with CONTROL-C. This all started when I didn't see the above before, because the next step was to 'syncdb' after I had edited the setting.py file thusly: # Django settings for SSG project.
