Thanks for this post. For all the good things the Mac does, finding things sometimes is a real pain!!

Thanks Gabriel, I have updated the post to reflect this path.

The correct location for the python interpreter on Leopard is: /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/bin/python2.5

Thanks a lot! Had the exact same problems trying to install PyDev, and this cleared it up completely. I had no idea that Cmd-Shift-G existed!

Beauty! I was having the same problem with those non-explanatory "I've fixed it!" posts.

Cheers!

Thought I had updated but guess I hadn't. That rules out version differences...

I've been wondering how to do this, and thanks to google I ended up here! I had gotten up to the SHIFT-CMD-G dialog and pasted in the url via CTRL-Click, but when I clicked Ok, I got a "oops, can't do that" system beep. Maybe it's a difference with 10.5.3 vs 10.5.2, but I had to Go to /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Resources/Python.app/
Contents/ and then open the MacOS folder in the open dialog, then I was able to select the interpreter.

Now it appears that everything went ok, but if I run into any more problems, I'll post back.

My goal is to get Django running in Eclipse with PyDev, and while I'm sure a bunch of other people have gone down that road, I haven't found a one-stop howto yet. I'll be putting together a series of posts at http://trysteria.blogspot.com/

Thanks Matt! I just made a new post that talks about the best way to configure PyDev for the Google App Engine:

Kudos indeed! As 'the next poor soul', I can attest that it is very easy to find. Thanks!

Yes, well I am firmly opposed to revisionist history. I like to think that comments like mine help the internets be slightly more stable than it would be otherwise.

Y yo sae me spelle ungood?

Seriously, I need to get a copy editor to review my rapidly written rants before I hit the post button. Of course now that you have "commented" on my "typo's" I have to leave them in with a strike, forever showing my poor writing abilities. Still, they are pretty funny typos...

I'm going to point out two items, that at first I thought were typos... and then I realized it was your inner rage at this nightmare channeling its way out in your writing:

1. "The fist thing I tried to do ..." one hardly wants to hear how that line finished
2. "SHIT-CMD-G"... I have desperately looked for the SHIT key on my keyboard many a time. I guess since I don't use a mac, I don't have access to it.

Oh, and kudos to you for posting this solution, with a name that will (hopefully) come up early for the next poor soul Googling for a solution.
