I am unable to use startproject in Django. In my virtual environment (venv) I can run django-admin to see a list of subcommands that includes “check”, startproject etc. I can execute “check” to see information about this command, but when I run django-admin startproject mysite” I only get a long traceback (see below).
I should also note that I have python37 installed through Anaconda yet I don’t see python37 in my path (I only see old python27). I wonder if the venv django is having trouble seeing python37, or is that not an issue?
