Looks like you're reasonably good to go - the default install location changed from when I originally wrote the instructions (and I'm nowhere near my Mac during the day - unfortunately). Let me know if you run into any more trouble running it, and I'll see what I can do to help. -joe On 2/24/07,

Having "/opt/local/bin" in PATH environment variable before anything else will accomplish #1. #2 makes me think we don't have everything resolved for you yet. If you invoke /usr/local/bin/python -V, I'm going to guess you're getting Python 2.3 - which is not what you want when you run setup.py to

That did it, it's working great! Two final questions: 1. How do I create a symbolic link so that typing "python" into the Terminal will pull "/usr/local/bin/python"? 2. I was forced to do a /usr/local/bin/python setup.py install of Django rather than install via SVN--should I bother setting up

The django that's currently installed is installed with the python 2.3, so you'll need to redo that installation process (download, run sudo python.setup install) again. After that, as long as the /opt... set is earlier on the path, you won't have any trouble. Do check to make sure that "/opt/loca

If you enter the command "/opt/loca/bin/python -V" do you get Python 2.4.something? What's the result of "echo $PATH"? (it may be a path ordering issue) On 2/23/07, Benjamin Chait <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >From Terminal: > > benjamin-chaits-powerbook-g4-15:~ benjaminchait$ port installe

Let's find out what happened with the python install. Obviously, it's time to redo those instructions a bit to make it easier to work out what went wrong. :-) What's the result of the command "port installed"? I'm hoping to see python24 listed there, but I'm suspicious that it didn't get installed
