Pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: Django==1.3.1 While Creating A New Project In Django

I am trying to create a new project but it getting following error . I am using python 2.6 and django 1.3.0 File '/usr/local/bin/django-admin.py', line 4, in imp

Solution 1:

It seems you have both Django 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 installed and you're using the django-admin.py from Django 1.3.1 while having Django 1.3.0 in your default Python path.

Try either of:

1. Using the correct version of django-admin.py corresponding to the Django version in your Python path (the one inside the bin/ directory of your Django 1.3.0 installation).

   You can check where your correct django-admin.py script is by executing this:

   echo "$(dirname $(python -c "import django; print django.__file__"))/bin/django-admin.py"

2. Getting your Python path to correctly point to your Django 1.3.1 installation.

Solution 2:

Try deleting easy_install.pth file if you try to install using easy_install too.

I have this issue as pip didn't worked i tried with easy_install and it installed the latest django, so have to delete it that file from dist-packages folder. Hope this helps some one referring.
