i'm trying to follow the tutorial: deploy django on aws Elastic Beanstalk

when i'm doing the Step 6's substep 5:

git aws.push

I get a ImportError message:

(tryhasinenv)Lee-Jamess-MacBook-Pro:tryhasin h0925473$ git aws.push
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".git/AWSDevTools/aws.elasticbeanstalk.push", line 21, in <module>
    from aws.dev_tools import * 
  File "/Users/h0925473/tryhasin_root/tryhasin/.git/AWSDevTools/aws/dev_tools.py", line 5, in <module>
    import boto
ImportError: No module named boto

I have no idea what to do. Can somebody tell me what's wrong?

On OSX I found that pip install boto did not resolve the issue. The problem was that python was not pointing to the pip installation. export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages resolved this for me.
