I can't run my Django project, can you help?

While py can run any py file in the terminal as py_any_project_name.py, when I type py manage.py runserver or python manage.py runserver, I get python not found error. Any ideas on the cause and solution? I'm using Python 3.10 and it's attached to the environment variables as the path..

For example i create an example.py file that includes print("Example").

py example.py

Example

py manage.py runserver

Python can not found.

    What is the actual error (copy and paste it here)? are you in the same folder as `manage.py` when you run this? – AMG May 31 '22 at 12:20

You need to enter that file path to run it, or just paste the file path of the python file. I hope I was able to help!

You can actually run administrative django commands without a manage.py script, which you might be lacking. Make sure your environment variables are correctly setup (DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE and whatnot) and django is installed in your python environment and try to run

python -m django runserver
