Keep on getting this error message when trying to run my django server: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Question

I'm trying to run my django server but keep on getting this error, [Errno 2] No such file or directory.

I tried using the cd manage.py command but also got this error cd : Cannot find path 'C:\Users\nyaknoiton\Desktop\Django 2\manage.py' because it does not exist.

Answer 1

You need to cd into psychology_project first not pychology_project. And then run python manage.py runserver

This is where manage.py lives.

Answer 2

Firstly (you misspelled it)

cd psychology_project

Then remember to save your manage.py file to disk (Ctrl-s). Finally

python manage.py runserver
