Trying to install Django - django

Question

I have been trying to install Django correctly for a while to no avail.
C:\Python34\Scripts\pip.exe install C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\Django-1.7.2\Django-1.7.2\setup.py
raises an exception and stores the following in a log file:
C:\Python34\Scripts\pip run on 01/12/15 17:47:02
Exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):

any help would be greatly appreciated!

For pip install refer to the directory containing setup.py.
C:\Python34\Scripts\pip.exe install C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\Django-1.7.2\Django-1.7.2\
But since your path has site-packages in it already (e.g. C:\Python34\Lib\site-packages\) it would seem that it is already installed.
Other alternatives are:
pip install django==1.7.2
pip install django==1.7
python C:...\Django-1.7.2\setup.py install
