python - Command not found: django-admin.py

Question

I am a complete beginner to Python/Django, but I want to dive right in and start experimenting. Thus I was following this guide on installing Python/Django http://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/django.

Everything is working fine until the step

django-admin.py startproject hellodjango

Where I get

command not found: django-admin.py

Now I have tried a few things, but none have really worked out. Is there someone kind enough to point me in the right direction?

P.S. Is there a great guide out there on running Python/Django locally on a Mac to run and test apps?

I'm on Mac OS X Lion, Python 2.7.

Answer 1

When that didn't work for me, I tried python -m django startproject mysite and it worked.
