Really simplified the process of installing Django/PostgreSQL. Thanks a lot! Most other articles are for MySQL.

I installed the latest Ubuntu – 9.10, which comes with python2.6; and Django 1.2 (beta). Here are some updated notes for the latest versions:
-in python2.6, they use a dist-packages folder instead of site-packages folder:
/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/django.pth
-The django.VERSION command will now print something like this:
(1, 2, 0, ‘beta’, 1)
– The easiest way for people to append to their path is to just do it in terminal with this command:
PATH=$PATH:/home/antonio/django_trunk/django/bin

cheers

Thank you for your great installation guide. Everything worked like a charm.

With kind regards

Now, if you want to go further and setup your production environment this tutorial on setting up Django with Lighty and Apache for Ubuntu may help you.

Cheers.

thanks for spotting the djtrunk, I have fixed it now. 🙂
pgadmin3 is not essential, just very useful on desktop systems. And yes, your problems were probably due to the fact that it’s a GUI application.

A couple points:
– This worked great with Ubuntu Desktop 7.10, but not quite with Ubuntu Server 7.10. I couldn’t apt-get pgadmin3 (assuming because it’s a GUI).

– One of your paths referred to ~/django_trunk while another pointed to ~/djtrunk. No big deal – just thought I’d let you know.

Nice job and thanks again!
