What Is The Next Step?

When I type 'python' it displays: ActivePython 2.6.5.14 (ActiveState Software Inc.) based on Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Jul 4 2010, 21:05:58) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Ty

Solution 1:

Apparently you are confusing between the Python REPL and the command line. You should be calling python create-application.py from the command line ("cmd" in Windows) and not from the REPL (which is what you get when you type python on the command line).

I suggest reading up on the basics before venturing further. Good Luck.

Solution 2:

You need to run the command python create-application.py from the command line, not from within the interpreter.

You have already started the Python interpreter, probably by typing python at the command line. (You can tell, because the >>> prompt is a Python standard.) This is a program that accepts Python code -- but python create-application.py isn't Python code, it's a system command. You run those from the command line.

I assume you're not planning to use Python to program (just to run this script) but if you are, I recommend Dive Into Python for a tutorial.
