pydev not recognizing python installation with django

Question

I have python installed with django. I know the installation is there because I installed it following the directions and in the command line I can do "import python" and there is no crash.

When I try creating a django project in pydev, I get an error: "Django not found."

What could the problem be?

Answer 1

I had the same problem and this is what I did just after installing eclipse:

• Preferences > Interpreter Python
• Pressed Auto-config
• Selected /Library/Python/x.x/site-packages, which was not selected (some django folders were in there, persumably the installation)
• Clicked apply / OK

Creating a Django project afterwards should be ok.

Good Luck!
