Help/Error Installing on Site5.com hosting using SSH

Question

Hi there. i am new to SSH and don't have a clue

How ever i followed the Installing OSQA on DreamHost and it looks it has install ok apart form installing the Database.

I am getting the following error: when i try and run(setup/install the database), python manage.py syncdb --all

 -jailshell-3.2$ python manage.py syncdb --all
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 4, in ?
    import settings # Assumed to be in the same directory.
  File "/home/<myusername>/public_html/settings.py", line 60, in ?
    from settings_local import *
  File "/home/<myusername>/public_html/settings_local.py", line 28
    if using
            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
-jailshell-3.2$

Any idea on what i am doing wrong?, or maybe someone can give me a step by step guide for site5.com Thanks and i look forward to any help

Hi GeeksTech, it looks like maybe you didn't copy settings_local.py.dist to settings_local.py and configure it for your site, or maybe there's a mistake in the settings_local.py file.

Feel free to pop into the OSQA chat channel, and we'll try to help you if we can. We'll need more data to dig any deeper.

right, i have just checked the settings_local.py and all looks to be in order (i think), It has all my database info there and so on.

I pop in the chat asap (unless someone else posts a fix before i pop in :P)
