What's the error message? Also what OS are you using? The install instructions seem fine.
In Debian & in most Unix Systems you could also these -
sudo pip install <module_name>to install any module.- or
sudo easy_install <module_name> - or
sudo apt-get install <module_name> - or you could do what you mentioned in the question. Should work fine.
Maybe you don't have root access. Package installation needs that. Post more info for more constructive comments. All the best.
