Hi All,
I am following the tutorial in the Django website (writing your first
django app) and get it to work on the development server. However,
when I port to Apache, the admin template is not loaded and thus I
could not get the nice Django UI with Apache. I try copying the
default django admin templates into my project root and add the path
to the TEMPLATE_DIRS in settings.py but still cannot get the django UI
in the login page and the admin dashboard.
Below is my settings:
OS: Fedora 11
Apache: 2.2 with mod_wsgi

(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

When I typed in http://127.0.0.1:8000/myapp/admin in the browser when
the development server runs the code. The output is perfect.
When the development server is not running and I typed in
http://localhost/myapp/admin, it prompt me the login page but without
all the styling as before. I can login and go to the admin dashboard
page but again the display is not with the django admin template.
I try leaving the TEMPLATE_DIRS in the settings.py blank but still the
same output.
I changed the user/group for all the files/directories inside my
project to "apache" hoping that this is a permission issue but it does
not help either.
Please tell me what I am missing. Many thanks.
Simon
