I want my Django project to use Python 2.7 instead of 2.6.8. I installed 2.7 and Django 1.5. But my project using the Python 2.6.8 which is default. How can I change it?

Update:

This is my configuration:

<Directory "/var/www/html/a/">
 SetHandler python-program
 PythonPath "['/var/www/html/'] + sys.path"
 PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
 SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE a.settings
 PythonDebug On
</Directory>

It seems that sys.path gets 2.6.8’s paths. This is the Python path that Django sees:

[‘/usr/lib/python2.7/’,
‘/var/www/html/’,
‘/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pip-1.1-py2.6.egg’,
‘/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django_transmeta-0.6.7-py2.6.egg’,
‘/usr/lib64/python26.zip’,
‘/usr/lib64/python2.6’,
‘/usr/lib64/python2.6/plat-linux2’,
‘/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-tk’,
‘/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-old’,
‘/usr/lib64/python2.6/lib-dynload’,
‘/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages’,
‘/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0’,
‘/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages’,
‘/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg-info’]

    Try using VirtualEnv ,
    http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv/

    This will make your task easily manageable by creating virtual environments where you can use one python version for your django installation, without breaking other applications which rely on other python versions.
