Thanks for your mail. I am not trying to do anything complicated (yet). I just setup Django 1.0, not even created any models. I just wanted to see the admin page before porting my models from the 0.96 installation. Could you please hint me how to find and comment out the test cookie portion? I am only 6 months old with python and django, but I am willing to make an attempt.
