Run manage.py from AWS EB Linux instance

Question

How to run manage.py from AWS EB (Elastic Beanstalk) Linux instance?

If I run it from '/opt/python/current/app', it shows the below exception.

Traceback (most recent call last):   File "./manage.py", line 8, in <module>     from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line ImportError: No module named django.core.management 

I think it's related with virtualenv. Any hints?
