Re: Django Tutorial(Database Setup Question)

Hi Tom,

So I click on Finder ---> Go ---> Home ---> 'Weiqi' folder ---> mysite folder ---> manage.py file. (using a Mac OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2)

This puts me in the same directory as the manage.py file.

Then I key in the command  : $ python manage.py migrate, but I still get the same error message 

CaiGengYangs-MacBook-Pro:Weiqi CaiGengYang$ python manage.py migrate --- input

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python: can't open file 'manage.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory --- output 

Not sure where I am doing this wrongly ... zzz

You need to be in the same directory as the file manage.py for the command to work. For Django-1.8 that is likely to be one level above your settings.py file.
