Re: Python shell doesn't launch

Glad to be able to help.

I've got a few tips too :)

  - Use the excellent Django Extensions app which once you add it to your INSTALLED_APPS tuple, will allow you to run python manage.py shell_plus, which automatically imports all of the models for apps. This is great as it's not often that you want to use shell without importing some models at least.

Also, install iPython, it has great features (e.g. command history) that make it much friendlier than the standard interactive mode.

Cheers,

Ryan

Whenever I run "python manage.py shell," I don't get any errors, but  I get the following:

C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\django\bin\mysite>python manage.py shell

Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 10 2012, 23:31:26) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Any ideas on what am I doing or have done wrong?
