How do I install an old version of Django on virtualenv?

+1 on the previous poster's reply: use pip if you can. But, in a pinch, the easiest way is to install an older version would be to download the tarball from the downloads page or, if you have subversion installed, do an svn export of the release you want (they are all tagged here).

Once you have the version of Django you want, just run the following command inside the django directory:

python setup.py install

This will install that version of Django in your virtualenv.

There was never a Django 1.0.7. The 1.0 series only went up to 1.0.4. You can see all the releases in the tags section of the Django code repository.

However to answer your question, don't use easy_install, use pip. (If it's not already installed, do easy_install pip, then never touch easy_install again). Now you can do:

pip install Django==1.0.4
