No module named django but it is installed
I have two versions of python 2.7 and 3.4 and installed django through pip. it shows in ubuntu terminal:
$ pip freeze
Django==1.6.11
$ pip --version
pip 1.5.4 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)
$ python
Python 2.7.9 (default, Feb 3 2016, 02:50:32)
[GCC 4.8.4] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>import django
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in ImportError: No module named django
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['', '/usr/local/lib/python27.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-tk', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-old', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages']
Probably, pip installs packages into dist-packages directory, which is not included into PYTHONPATH environment variable. You have a couple of solutions for django no module named:
1. Create and configure virtualenv for your project, before using pip. This is the most Pythonic way
2. Try to install Django using built-in pip module:
python -m pip install django
This command should install packages into the site-packages directory.
3. You may also add dist-packages to your PYTHONPATH
