I have two python versions 2.6 and 3.0. I want to install django1.3 in python3.0's site-package directory and my default python setting is on 2.6. I also added path /usr/local/bin/python3.0 and /usr/local/bin/python3.0 into .bashrc file. Please help me.

Django is not compatible with Python 3. You must install it in the 2.X branch.

However, what you want to achive will be easier done using virtualenv:

easy_install virtualenv
virtualenv project --python=python2.6
source project/bin/activate
pip install django

Django doesn't yet work with python3.0. So it is better you install it on the python2.6 dist-packages folder.

That said, if you had python2.7 and wanted to install django on python 2.7, while the better approach is to use virtualenv, a simple solution is to:

python2.7 setup.py install

or

easy_install2.7 django

or

/path/to/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/pip install django
