Answer 1

Install

First you need make sure you have Python install, here I take 2.7.6 as example. For how to install Python, you can go check this link:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/443048/python-2-7-6-on-ubuntu-12-04-how-to

Then you can start install Django and setup database as follow:

sudo apt-get install python-django
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
sudo apt-get install python-mysqldb

You can find more configuration detail in this link

Also, for less pain in future develop, you should deploy your Django application in python virtualEnv, here are some detail of why you need virtualEnv.
