Turbogears: Can not start paster after updateing to mac osx 10.6

After updateing to mac osx 10.6 I had to switch back to python 2.5 in order to make virtual env work. But still I can not start my turbogears project. Paster is giving this :

Traceback (most recent call last):

Any ideas? Thanks.

Why did you need to switch back to 2.5 to make virtualenv work? I have upgraded to 10.6 and am happily using virtualenv in Python 2.6.

Probably eggs are installed for 2.6 distro. Please run in your terminal:

defaults write com.apple.versioner.python Version 2.5
export VERSIONER_PYTHON_VERSION=2.5
sudo easy_install virtualenv

Check out the second line, it should change python version for current terminal session.

As you've seen, in Snow Leopard 10.6, Apple supplies both a Python 2.6.2 (the default for /usr/bin/python) and a legacy Python 2.5.4 (/usr/bin/python2.5). The heart of both live in the /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework. In general, everything under /System is supplied and managed by Apple; it should not be modified by anyone else.

If that message is to be believed, your 10.6 installation is faulty.

Check to see that file exists and with the correct permissions. If not, you should figure out what else is wrong with your /System and consider restoring from a backup or just reinstalling Snow Leopard.
