Hi all, I am trying to do obtain the distance between two users on my site, using code I found in this group. We already have geoDjango installed, though i'm wondering if my problem comes from being on an old version (i dont know which version we're using - if somebody could tell me how to check that would be great). We are running Django 1.1
the code i am using is: from django.contrib.gis.geos import Point from django.contrib.gis.measure import D my_location = request.user.get_profile().location their_location = other_user.get_profile().location my_location.transform(4326) their_location.transform(4326) distance = my_location.distance(their_location) if request.user.get_profile().get_preferences().use_metric == 1: distance_result = round(D(m=my_location.distance(their_location)).km, 1) else: distance_result = round(D(m=my_location.distance(their_location)).mi, 1) the last section is just a check to see whether the user wants the result in miles or km. the bit that's troubles me is the transform() section. if i put in 4326, i just get 0.0 as the result. if i put in nothing so it's just transform() (which i understand should use 4326), i get this django Error: TypeError at /members/GayHopHelper/ transform() takes at least 2 arguments (1 given) the only thing that works so far is using SRID 32140, which is for south texas. the results seem ok but definitely a bit inaccurate, which is to be expected. i'm not a Django export at all so maybe this all just comes from being on an old version of GeoDjango and i need to upgrade. if that's all it is then sorry for wasting time (i'm not a sys admin and dont know much about Django so cant upgrade myself easily). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
