帮助解决Virtualenv中的DistributionNotFound错误

Question

I've installed virtualenv on my system which the argument to not copy over any site packages. Then I did an easy_install to install Django and that went fine too.

In the virtual environ when i try and try django-admin.py , I get an error that I'm not being able to resolve. Could someone help me out please? Thanks a ton.

(virt1) C:\virt_env\virt1>Scripts\django-admin.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\virt_env\virt1\Scripts\django-admin.py", line 4, in <module>
    import pkg_resources
  File "C:\Program_Files\Python27\lib\site-packages\pkg_resources.py", line 2607, in <module>
    parse_requirements(__requires__), Environment()
  File "C:\Program_Files\Python27\lib\site-packages\pkg_resources.py", line 565, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req)  # XXX put more info here
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: django==1.3

Answer 1

I don't think easy_install knows about virtualenv . Use pip instead.
