Your pythonpath should contain - c:\python26\lib\site-packages If you include the 'django' directory in that path, python will only resolve imports using what's inside, and because there is no 'django' directory inside the django directory, it can't resolve it. if djtrunk is the SVN checkout, what's inside c:\python26\lib\site-packages\django ? I wouldn't recommend having two versions of Django in system/python path - could lead to odd errors. > Can anyone help? > > Thanks, > > Nick > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to django-us...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
