Hey Aldo,
I just stumbled across this thread.
Just looking at your django.cgi script i reckon musicisc maybe should
be musicischarity
as in sys.path.append("/hsphere/local/home/musicisc/Django-0.96")
should be sys.path.append("/hsphere/local/home/musicischarity/
Django-0.96")
just going on the dir structure that I have in my digiweb account
