|

|
|
||||||
|
If you installed Django using a Linux distribution's package manager
|
||||||
|
(e.g. ``apt-get`` or ``yum``) ``django-admin.py`` may have been renamed to
|
||||||
|
``django-admin``; use that instead.

Mac OS X permissions
|

|
--------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you're using Mac OS X, you may see the message "permission denied" when
|
||||||
|
you try to run ``django-admin.py``. This is because, on Unix-based systems like
|
||||||
|
OS X, a file must be marked as "executable" before it can be run as a program.
|
||||||
|
To do this, open Terminal.app and navigate (using the ``cd`` command) to the
|
||||||
|
directory where :doc:`django-admin.py </ref/django-admin>` is installed, then
|
||||||
|
run the command ``sudo chmod +x django-admin.py``.

Running virtualenv on Windows

|
-----------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you used virtualenv_ to :ref:`install Django <installing-official-release>`
|
||||||
|
on Windows, you may get an ``ImportError`` when you try to run
|
||||||
|
``django-admin.py``. This is because Windows does not run the
|
||||||
|
Python interpreter from your virtual environment unless you invoke it
|
||||||
|
directly. Instead, prefix all commands that use .py files with ``python`` and
|
||||||
|
use the full path to the file, like so:
|
||||||
|
``python C:\pythonXY\Scripts\django-admin.py``.
