python - django-admin.py startproject mysite not working well on windows 7

Question

I'm learning django and I did successfully start a site on Windows XP by following the tutorial.

However, on Windows 7 when I issued:

django-admin.py startproject mysite

python.exe was started and a window appeared to ask me to choose either python.exe or other program to open a file....

Did I do anything wrong or there are more tricks for windows 7?

Answer 1

That's already been reported to the django, see http://bugs.python.org/issue7936 And these's an solution: open regedit and find python.exe like this "C:Python26python.exe" "%1" change it to "C:Python26python.exe" "%1" %*
