Django runs as expected using manage.py runserver, but when I run it from apache certain files are not found.
This is because the apache user has a different base directory than the user running manage.py. So, I added absolute paths to my setting.py and other files. Now through apache one can access all the modules and pages just fine. But when I try to go to /admin I see there is no css formatting. everything is very plain and not like the version through runserver at all. I assume this is because the css file is not being found. But if the admin code is found, and allows me the properly add items and everything, why isn't the css found? granted, the html code I've written doesn't have any css going on, so I cant say that only the admin pages aren't rendering right. my apache setup looks like: <Location "/"> SetHandler python-program PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython PythonPath "['/home/libadmin/library/django-ils/','/home/ libadmin/library/django-ils/bookshare'] + sys.path" SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE bookshare.settings PythonOption django.root /home/libadmin/library/django-ils/bookshare/ PythonDebug On </Location> Thinking that a relative path to the css file was being misused I checked the source of the admin login page in firefox. The admin site is looking for <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/media/css/ login.css" /> this file exsists in both /usr/share/python-support/python-django/django/contrib/admin/media/css/ login.css /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/contrib/admin/media/css/ login.css so, is django not finding this file because of an irrendered relative path? and if so, what is wrong with my configuration that this isn't found? (This is being run from a cloned mercurial repo, so I did not start this project on this machine with the django scripts. if this is the issue, is there a way to manually do what the startproject or startapp scripts are supposed to do?) thanks, Elliot -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
