unable to find askbot-setup file

install
retag add tags

I just clone the repository and ran python setup.py develop command, Then I was going to follow the instructions given at configuration page (Dont have karma to publish links) but I am unable to find the that file in the folder that I install.

Based on the information on git hub clone, I gave a project name when I cloned and so I have myaskbot/askbot

This is what mentioned in the configuration page:

When installing Askbot for the first time, you will need to initialize the project setup files by typing:

askbot-setup

When you cloned the repository you have just copied the software onto your disk, but it has not yet been installed in a way that python does not know about what you've copied.

python setup.py install or python setup.py develop do that second part - please read the documentation more carefully.

It's a good idea to use python's virtual environment.
