Polls app not showing in Admin > Django Tutorial
Hi,
I've been going over this, but for some reason the Polls app is not
showing up in the admin after adding 'class Admin: pass' to the poll
model. I've searched through this user group, and have tried all the
things suggested, but am still not having much luck. My models.py page
looks like this:
from django.db import models
import datetime
class Poll(models.Model):
question = models.CharField(max_length=200)
pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')
def __unicode__(self):
return self.question
def was_published_today(self):
return self.pub_date.date() == datetime.date.today()
class Admin:
pass
class Choice(models.Model):
poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll)
choice = models.CharField(max_length=200)
votes = models.IntegerField()
def __unicode__(self):
return self.choice
Any help would be great.
(ps running the latest trunk)

Anyone got a backend for MS SQL Server working?
Hi all, sorry; I know that this is an ever-coming-back question, but I need to dig a bit deeper to get further, before deciding to struggle on or give up. I've been coding happily with Django for over a year, using an Ubuntu server with a PostgreSQL database and a development environment on Max OS X and PostgreSQL on my MacBook to develop databases for bibliometric analyzes. A few months ago, I started working with a new organization that is running a big bibliometric database in a Windows environment on an MS SQL Server. I'm not in the position to suggest a platform switch, but I have managed to get an Ubuntu server to act as a front-end towards the database. I have installed Django on the Ubuntu server and can access the database using Python and pymssql (0.8). But I have not had any luck with the different external efforts to interface Django against MS SQL Server. As far as I have seen from this forum there is two different external development efforts for Django MS SQL support; django-mssql and django- pydobc, and I have tried both with no luck. Here is my report: django-mssql (http://code.google.com/p/django-mssql/) I seems that django-mssql is a Windows-only solution, since it is based on sqlserver_ado, which in turn is dependent on win32com.client, which is Windows-specific. As I have a good development-server pairing on my Mac laptop and the Ubuntu server, I would rather not switch to development in a Windows environment, so this does not seem to be a viable solution to me. django-pyodbc (http://code.google.com/p/django-pyodbc/) --- django-pyodbc seemed to be a much more promising path to walk, since it is based on pyodbc and pymssql, which both seems to be rather platform neutral. The present django-pyodbc is furthermore primarily based on pymssql, which I already have running on both my server and development environment against the MS SQL Server. But when I try to install and run django-pyodbc I run into a number of basic problems. The first problem is that the developer suggests the package to be installed in a directory named django-pyodbc and called in as an external module, but Python doesn't allow for hyphens in module names. I have tried to rename the module to django_pyodbc to get around the problem, but the files of the module have a number of hard-coded includes referring to django-pyodbc, so I had to edit all of those also, but didn't get it working anyhow. My question is: Is there anyone around running Django on a Linux platform towards an MS SQL Server with some kind of Django-integrated database backend support? If, so; how did you do it? I'm not interested in fancy stuff like paging record sets (I've understood that there is a lack of support for this in MS SQL Server), but just basic Django model support.

Custom field in JSON serializer
Hi All,
I picked up this sample code from django documentation:
from django.core import serializers
data = serializers.serialize('xml', SomeModel.objects.all(),
fields=('name','size'))
How do I extend this to do the following:
data = serializers.serialize('xml', SomeModel.objects.all(),
fields=('name','size', '__unicode__'))
Thanks in advance

Re: Django Database Relationship Question
Hey there,
A M2M field creates an intermediary join table which doesn't show up
in the admin, or other places. It's basically just a pairing of
Journalist ids with Article ids, and the M2M field is a convenience
that allows you to ignore this table. If you want to add additional
information to this intermediary table (which is what you're doing),
you'll have to create the table explicitly, and use it yourself. There
are instructions for doing so here:
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/models/m2m_intermediary/
which coincidentally use an example very similar to your setup...
Good luck!

Re: Django Database Relationship Question
Hi,
To do that I would use an auxilliary model:
class Journalist(models.Model):
pass
class Article(models.Model):
pass
class JournalistArticleRelationship(models.Model):
journalist = models.ForeignKey(Journalist)
article = models.ForeignKey(Article)
status = models.Charfield()
That way you could associate a particular article with a particular
journalist and giving it a particular status.
Hope that helps.

Re: Django Database Relationship Question
Well you'd want a relational table of author status', some thing like
this:
class Journalist(models.Model):
name = models.Charfield()
class Article(models.Model):
articles = models.Charfield
class State(models.Model):
state = models.CharField()
class Article_relationship(models.Model):
article = models.ForeignKey(Article)
journalist = models.ForeignKey(Journalist)
state = models.ForeignKey(State)
You can define a ManyToMany and it will make relational tables for you
in simple databases, but you can also define those tables explicitly
like this and create a more custom database scheme. That's what i
would do, however this could be set up in a few different ways.

Django Database Relationship Question
Hi, sorry for what is probably a trivial question, but I'm new to
Django and a little fuzzy on databases in general, so I hope someone
here can help. Just to keep the motif, I'll frame my question in
terms of journalism.
I'd like to set up a database with the following relationships: a
model of articles and a model of journalists. That's easy enough.
Because one article can have multiple journalists associated with it,
that's a ManyToMany relationship:
class Journalist(models.Model):
pass
class Article(models.Model):
journalists = models.ManyToManyField(Journalist)
Simple, but that's not what I happen to want. What I really want in
my application is to know the *status* of a journalist with respect to
an article. That status could be, let's say, one of four things:
["Unafilliated", "CurrentlyWriting", "DoneWriting", "Dead"].
Coming from a Python background, I might just call this a dictionary
of statuses, with Journalists being the keys, and each entry
containing one of four values:
class Article(models.Model):
status = { "Bob Ryan" : "CurrentlyWriting",
"Rob Bradford" : "Unaffiliated",
"Peter Gammons" : "DoneWriting",
"Dan Shaughnessy" : "Dead"}
Ok, Shaughnessy isn't dead, but if you lived in Boston, you'd
understand. Anyway, a dictionary is nice and all, but then the
information isn't in the database, and that's the whole point.
Can anyone tell me what this relationship is called and how to do it
in Django?
Thanks!

Basically, for any given model in the app, it does the equivalent of TheModel.objects.all() and then iterates through the result to dump them out. Since iterating through a queryset also caches the results, you'll end up with a copy of all the data in member for each model (which will then be discarded before moving onto the next model). So if you have a model with a lot of data in it, it could well be a lot of memory. That will depend on the amounts of data you have, though. There's probably some possibility of being a bit less aggressive in this respect with some code changes (for example, a --maxrecords option to dumpdata could be added), but I haven't really thought that through. Why are you running dumpdata so frequently that this really matters, though? For backup purposes, just dumping the database is going to be a lot faster and easier, for example.

manage.py dumpdata and swap
Hello I have a small server, just 5 users and I use the django for data entry. My server have only 512MB of RAM but it is enough and it work really well. But whenever I run "manage.py dumpdata xml" --format=xml" for backup purposes it uses all my RAM and start filling the swap space on my server. Is it some kind of memory leak in that routine?

Problems setting up LDAP backend
Hi All, I was able to setup review board with the default auth backend. However I am having problem setting it with LDAP. Here is what I did: 1). I added the following to the settings_local.py.

mod_python install
Hi there, I'm trying to set up Python 2.5.2 and Django onmy Mac osx 10.4.11 But i'm a complete newbie in thing like this and command line mastering. I'm not feeling really confident a the moment in what i do. I'm following tho django book install on the django project web site. the Python and django install seems to have work well, i can create project and run the test server. but when i modify the settings.py to define the database name, account and password (that i have set up with phpMy Admin) on the launch of the server it says that it can't validate the models. If i empty the strings it start with no error again. I think it is because i don't have mod_python installed. I downloaded the latest version from the apache website but then i don't really know what to anymore and when i google install mod_python on mac osx it is not very helpful. it mostly return install mod phyton. so could somebody describe to me the command line to use to install mod python or refer me to a proper tutorial for osx. thank youvery much --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Full list of Django features?
A lot of that depends on what you would consider a feature vs. what you think a modern web framework should provide by default. Aside from the points listed on the home page, I would suggest going to the documentation page and look down the list of reference topics. Those are all "features" in a sense. You can get more specific by going to one of the topics and concentrating on the subtopics in the right-hand sidebar. Anything that says "New" or "New in development version" probably isn't in 0.96. Frankly, many devs and companies run off of trunk since new commits are rigorously tested against the pretty comprehensive test suite. You might also check here: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/release_notes_0.96/#what-s-new-in-0-96 The fact that Django is implemented in Python is a huge win in itself for many people. The Django community and Python in general are fortunate to count a lot of extremely talented and gracious people. Python has started to turn a lot of heads recently due to the success of Django, Google hiring Guido, Google App Engine, etc. The landscape has changed a little but it can be said that people who learned Python in the past did so because they appreciated the elegance of the language. In my experience engineers who use Python (generally) just seem to be a little more well rounded to me. That's not to imply that people who learn Python suddenly become better engineers, rather that better engineers have gravitated toward Python. For me, a vibrant community and a well designed product outweigh any generic feature list. The best framework (whatever that is) isn't going to solve all your problems or magically make your applications run better. Once you get beyond "hello world" a good framework should reduce the boring, repetitive work but you'll still have to solve some problems on your own. Personally I'd rather solve those problems using Python than other languages I've used. Python itself has a tremendous ecosystem of libraries and modules. -Brian On Jun 26, 2:21 pm, Phillip B Oldham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm looking to propose python+django for a new project at work, as I > feel it will be a good fit.

Problems retrieving array from POST
Hi all,
I've fairly new to django but i'm loving it!
I've got some draggable panels on a site and want to save their
positions so when a user logs back in, the panels are in the same
place when they last hit the save button. What I'm doing is (using
jQuery) retrieving the id's of the panels, putting them into an array,
and using ajax to pass the array to the server:
var data = []
$('#left > div').each(function() {
data.push($(this).attr('id'));
});
var Left = 'Left';
for(x in data)
{
Left += data[x] + " in pos " + x + "";
}
Left += "";
$('#var_test').html(Left);
$.post("/post_test/",{'data[]': data });
Using firebug, I can see that the data is being posted correctly.
Below is the view (abridged):
def post_handler(request):
post_text = request.POST.getlist('data')
user = User.objects.get(id=2) # for debugging purposes
for x in range( len(post_text)-1 ):
name = post_text[x]
panel =
user.panels_set.get(name__istartswith=name,side="left")
panel.order = x
panel.save()
The problem is its not saving to the database, I'm assuming it to do
with the way I'm accessing the POST data, but I can't work it out.
I've tried post_text = request.POST['data'], but that didn't work
either,
I really am at a loose end with this...please help!!

site_media paths
Hi, I've just started playing with Django and I must say I'm impressed. It's easy, it's fast, it's beautiful. I wrote a small app and will be going to production soon. I deployed the site to a staging server and I'm having some trouble serving static files (I keep getting 404's). I realize it's really an issue of my web server configuration, not Django's but still, I thought I might get some help here. Django itself is running fine on fcgi + Nginx, it's just the static content I'm struggling with. For now, I'm using just one instance of Nginx to serve both dynamic and static content, on the production server I might use Apache + mod_python + nginx, don't know yet. All my static files (css, js and so forth) live under a folder called main in my site's root directory. The relevant parts of the nginx.conf file are here: http://pastie.org/222952 and in my settings.py file: MEDIA_ROOT = '/var/www/apps/example/current/example/media' MEDIA_URL = '/site_media/' Locally, everything works fine with django.views.static.serve, it's just on the remote server I am having trouble.

I'll assume that this is the forms.py of your app, not django? In that
case, it might be better to be explicit:
from myapp.forms import * # Now also self-documenting!
> def DoPayDetailForm (request):
>if request.method =='POST':

>if form.is_valid():

The point of .is_valid() (at least in newforms) is that you don't have
to do this. The data in request.POST is washed, cleaned, checked,
dried and put into form.cleaned_data, as a dict. No need to touch
request.POST.
>return render_to_response("step2.html",{'AccountNum':
> AccountNum, 'NameOnAcct': NameOnAcct,

> 'Street1': Street1, 'Street2': Street2,
>'City': City, 'State': State, 'ZipCode': ZipCode, 'form':
> form}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
I would do:
data = forms.cleaned_data
data['form'] = form
return render_to_response('step2.html', data,
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
Actually, I would use a FormWizard, after patching it with the great
patch in ticket 6893 at http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/6893 ,
and my own patch that makes it put the previous form in a session
instead of putting it in the next form.

Re: ModelChoiceField setting value manually
This may sound like a cop out, but why can't you create a gallery object with that default value. Then when you construct your query set, you can create so that that default option is returned.

Re: Unexpected Keyword Argument 'radio_admin'
Thanks Karen and Brian for your suggestions. Turned out a combination of the two (got to read those error messages more closely - cough) It was incorrect radio_admin syntax in the 'pluggable' basic blog app - http://code.google.com/p/django-basic-apps/, had to clear pyc's as well. Now got a new error now - AttributeError at / 'Manager' object has no attribute 'published' Which is linked to the basic-blog app. Strange because code was working fine prior to newforms issue. I look forward to the day when I can confidently produe error free django apps!

Full list of Django features?
I'm looking to propose python+django for a new project at work, as I feel it will be a good fit. Generally everything is done in PHP, so its going to be a bit of a change. I've already gathered a list of benefits to using python (fully oo, maintainability across developers, etc), now I just need to find a list of features for django which I can use with my proposal to highlight why django would be a better choice than our current framework. Can anyone point me to a complete list of features for django 0.96.2? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Django has a stable release (0.96), it will have an *API-stable* release when 1.0 comes out (this September).

Re: Why I can't include external javascript???
Key Reference: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/static_files/ You need 2 in your HTTPD configuration file, one for things that will be processed by Django, one for static files. Thus, you need to actually put your static JS files on a /var/www/static-file/ or some web-served thing and use that URL also be sure that the handle is set to None so it doesn't waste overhead.

At this stage, while you're still learning, I would AVOID making URL
mappings that "appear" to be HTML files, because you'll end up
confusing yourself. (Django will let you do stuff like that later, if
you have some compelling *reason* for it).
But the way it works is the urlpatterns map a URL to a Python "views"
function, and this mapping has NOTHING to do with the name of your
template.
This would work equally well and be less confusing:
| # urls.py
| urlpatterns = patterns('',
| (r'/step-1/$', 'billpay.views.DoPayDetailForm'),
| )
Visiting "http://yoursite/step-1/"; will call the DoPayDetailForm()
function in your billpay/views.py and pass it an HTTP Request
parameter. Simple.
The TEMPLATE (which you named step-1.html) doesn't come into the
picture until that code returns an HTTP Response object. The first
parameter of render_to_response() is the template name, which has
_nothing_ to do with the URL mapping.
You can map the URL "/step-1/" and name the template step-1.html if
you want, but that's merely a coincidence for your own convenience;
there's no ACTUAL direct relationship between those names.
I'm probably overemphasizing a simple point, but it seems like you
might've assumed there is some "connection" where there isn't one,
since you put that unusual ".html" into your URL mapping.

Re: url views problem
This line:
query = show.objects.filter(show_feed__contains="http://";)
selects all shows that have a feed url(?) containing "http://";. The for loop
then loops through these items and passes each one to feedparser. If you
want to view only one show you have to change this to use the show ID you're
passing in. So maybe replacing the query line with
s = show.objects.get(pk=show_feed)
and getting rid of the "for s in query" line might do the trick? Then you'll
get only the feed for show 1 parsed when you go to /shows/1.

Re: Problem logging in to admin using Safari
I guess it depends on what you mean by "client related". If Safari is the only browser exhibiting this behavior I think it's safe to assume that the web server is doing OK. This assumption is only strengthened by the fact that only a change of the name the server is accessed through changes the behavior of the browser. Your guess about DNS vs. hosts-file seems reasonable to me, and the reason Safari is different could be because it uses a different resolver library. I guess it interprets the cookie as a third-party cookie when accessed through a name defined in the hosts file or something like that. It's not really surprising that it works with other browsers, since it really should work. Obviously, Safari is misbehaving here, so I still don't really see how you can say it isn't client related (although it could possibly be fixed by using a proper DNS entry instead of using the hosts file). /Emil 2008/6/25 Pieter Claerhout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > I think I got closer to the source of the problem. > > First of all, it's not client related. > > What I tried was the following: > - Removed all the virtual hosting stuff and defined the complete web > server to serve the django app. > - Included django_test.local pointing to 127.0.0.1 in the hosts file. > > If I then browse to http://localhost/admin/ using Safari, I can > properly log in.

It's close. Re-write it as such:

The biggest change here is that I removed the single-quotes from
"billpay.views.DoPayDetailForm".

Validation Problem with ModelChoiceField
Hello, I have a serious validation problem with a form using a ModelSchoiceField. Forms: class MyModelChoiceField(forms.ModelChoiceField): def label_from_instance(self, obj): return "%s" % obj.name class PictureForm(forms.Form): image = forms.ImageField(label='Picture') gallery= MyModelChoiceField(models.Gallery.objects.none(), empty_label=None) __ View: picture_form = forms.PictureForm() picture_form.fields['gallery'].queryset = Gallery.objects.filter(...) It displays all fine, my ModelchoiceField has all Gallery-Entries I pass. But when it comes to validation an ValidationError is raised. I cannot understand this at all. Everthing is properly passed to the server. request.POST['gallery'] is the right Gallery-id, everthing seems fine but it does not work. Please help me, these ModelChoiceField drive me crazy!

User Filtering
I've got a model that represents a boat of rowers which has eight seats (order is important). The easiest way to handle this was a model with eight foreign keys: class Boat(models.Model): seat_1 = models.ForeignKey(User) [...] seat_8 = models.ForeignKey(User) Which is fine and great, but now in the user-space boat editing page, we have to go through a large list of usernames for each seat to find the person we're looking for. The site refers to everyone by their full names, usernames are only used for logging in, so we need to be able to filter or auto-complete based on first/last name (which is not a problem). Does anyone know of a good way to let them quickly search by name and set these seats without having to navigate away from the page? Any AJAX utilities to recommend? I looked at YUI auto-complete, but that might get tricky since ForeignKey expects an integer in this case (id=int). It's very easy to set up auto-complete, but I'm not sure of the best way to have it set the Int.

No, don't be carried away by the example provided there, that is for a
slightly complicated case.
class MyForm(forms.Form):
image= forms.ImageField(label='Picture')
gallery = forms.ModelChoiceFiled(/your/query/goes/here)

if request.method == 'POST':
form = MyForm(request.POST)

return render_to_response('your_template.html, {'form': form})
Hope this helps

Unlikely; Notepad is REALLY lightweight. Wordpad is MUCH better; it handles files >64K, files with UNIX-style linebreaks, and files with foreign characters. So if you're stuck with Windows and don't want to install any third-party stuff, just use Wordpad and forget that Notepad even exists. Personally, I'm running Linux with KDE, and "kwrite" and "kdevelop" both have pretty good Python syntax recognition builtin.

Attachments in Django
I am just about ready to launch my first Django Website! It for a local gym where my daughter trains and I offered to rewrite their current site because it's out of date (www.sonshineacademy.com). I've set up the database to handle their announcements and I think it's going to work out fine. Now to get hosting and, hopefully, have it up in a couple of weeks (not bad, seeing as I started learning it at PyCon this year). My question deals with handling attachments to the announcements. I have it set up so all announcements are displayed on the home page and then each program (gymnastics, dance, cheer leading, etc.) will have only the announcements flagged for them on their individual home pages. I would like to set things up so we can have downloads (pdf, Word, etc.) because they tend to have a lot of maps, meet information, schedules, etc. associated with the announcement. My intention is to create a "download_info" table with a description, the path to the file, and a link to the announcement table then display all of the associated downloads for any given announcement (the users can clink on the annoucement on the main page and the announcement gage come up with the details).Can I, or rather how do I, create a link that will either display or download the file given a link? Would I put the actual files in a sub directory of the "site_media" directory? Does that make sense?

ModelChoiceField setting value manually
Hello, I try to set data for a ModelChoiceField() manually.

Can anyone please give me a short example how to build and fill a queryset manually, or show me a more elegeant way how to populate the modelchoicefield with data not comming from the database.

The radio_admin stuff was recently implemented there, meaning support for the old way of specifying radio_admin was removed (previously on newforms-admin it was just being ignored). If you are using trunk I'm confused how you could hit this, since I just verified that the old way of specifying radio_admin still works there (r7770). If you are using newforms-admin, see: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/NewformsAdminBranch for the new proper way to specify radio fields in admin.

Stability of trunk and 1.0 target: experience, testimonials?
Hi folks, I'm trying to champion Django trunk/1.0 as part of a small project in a mid-sized city newspaper office. There is some worry about choosing a framework which does not currently have a stable release. I've been addressing these worries with examples of the stability of trunk and the excellent planning and engineering of the project in general. Never the less, it would be valuable to me to have testimonials from others using or targeting trunk/1.0 in their applications, especially from traditional businesses. I think such testimonials could also help others get steam behind the 1.0 effort in organizations which are wary of support and stability. So I'd like to request that, if you have time and inclination, such users would post or email testimonials explaining your use of Django, experience with it's stability over time, confidence in the core developers, and (and here's where the higher-ups are interested) the size and nature of your project and company.

I don't think you sounded abrasive @ all... I appreciate the hand up

programming with MS.
here's what i've added to my urls.py
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from billpay.views import * # my app is called billpay
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'/step-1.html', 'billpay.views.DoPayDetailForm'),
)
Wouldn't this call the dopaydetailform view if you went to the page /
step-1.html ?

Group by week
I have a view which returns a group of upcoming events. I would like to display the events grouped by week: Week of June 22 * Event 1 * Event 2 * Event 3 Week of June 29 * Event 4 * Event 5 * Event 6 I've seen examples for doing this using the ifchanged tag, and I've got that working. But I can't seem to figure out how to display the beginning of the week as the heading since the first event isn't always a Sunday.

Re: base template and views
> Anyone know what I really ought to be doing?
What you want is a default context. Look at
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates_python/#playing-with-context-objects
Also see
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/settings/#template-context-processors.
Pretty much all of our views end with something like this:
return render_to_response('some_template_name.html',
RequestContext(request, {
'title': 'My Title,etc. etc.
}))
RequestContext will automatically call each of the
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS listed in the settings.py file.

Peter

Add another section, something like that:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^whatever/$', 'your_project.your_app.views.DoPaymentDetailForm'),
)
But you should really start with the tutorial[1] or the Django Book[2].
The documentation for Django is really outstanding, you'll progress much
faster if you do some more reading.

base template and views
I have a design issue where i want to have a standard base template display a list of database entries with a count for the most popular entries. If I am using this as the base template this means that I need to pass the list and the calculated count from any view which calls any template which extends the base template. I can't help but think I am going about this the wrong way since I am repeating code and procedure in the views section. Anyone know what I really ought to be doing?

My urls.py file only has the call for the template at this time...
urlpatterns=patterns('django.views.generic.simple',
(r'step-1.html', 'direct_to_template', {'template':
'step1.html'}),
How do I call the view?

Re: how to get form fields to show
Hey -
i've only included a single line in my urls file as follows:
urlpatterns=patterns('django.views.generic.simple',
(r'step-1.html', 'direct_to_template', {'template':
'step1.html'}),
This obviously calls my html page. how do i call the view?

I'm not sure what you are talking about. Django does nearly nothing
automatically (remember, "Explicit is better than implicit." from the
Zen of Python).
It's hard to tell why it is not working for you without more
information. Here are some questions for you:
Do you have an URLconf entry for your DoPaymentDetailForm view? Are you
sure, the view gets called?
Maybe you have an error in your Django Template? How do you access the
fields? (Something like {{ form.your_field }} should work.)

Django setup with apache
Hi all,
I have a weird problem hitting the methods matched through urls.py.
My setup works through when I just set it up manually using
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 etc, but not when using apache
The path to the the application
is /home/dradmin/wwwroot/php/drmu/sommerspil
I have verified that I hit the correct directory by going to
http://.../sommerspil/ with a browser. However it tells me that
http://.../sommerspil/login/ does not exist, (and it doesn't, since
login is a script under sommerspil/spil/login, etc). Again, using
runserver the request is correctly handled with django, but when using
apache.
My urls.py file look like:
from sommerspil.spil.views import *
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^/php/drmu/sommerspil/',include('normal.root.urls')),
(r'^register/', register),
(r'^setupdatabase/', setupDatabase),
(r'^login/', loginUser),
(r'^setroute/$', setRoute),
(r'^updatetonextday/$', updateToNextDay),
(r'^(?P.*)$',
'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': '/home/dradmin/wwwroot/'}),
)
I have also added sommerspil.spil to the list of applications in
settings.py
the setup in the apache configuration looks like
SetHandler python-program
PythonPath "sys.path +
['/home/dradmin/wwwroot/php/drmu']"
PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE sommerspil.settings
PythonDebug On
Please, is there anyone who can me a hint to what I am doing wrong? I
have a sneaking feeling, that it is just a little mistake somewhere,
that I have to figure out.
Cheers,
Gorm

Re: how to get form fields to show
Hi Matthias -
I changed my view name to DoPaymentDetailForm and still no luck. Does
something have to call this view or does Django just do it

Re: Need help with django poll tutorial (poll form doesn't work)
do you have spaces around post?
i dont even know if that would cause the problem.
if you ar eusing the dev console, the way to debug is use the print
statement
so put these someplace and tell us what you get
print request.method
print request.POST['choice']

Re: views.py: Always a simple return?
Ross, I had one more thought. Are most browsers capable of using persistent HTTP for XMLHttpRequests? If so, and *assuming your main motivation is simply to be more efficient by using a single HTTP connection* for your traffic, then I think you might be able to implicitly exploit persistent HTTP to get what you want. If you use a pull model rather than a push model, and have the client make its requests frequently enough that most browsers' timeouts don't tear down the persistent HTTP connection, and if you ensure that your responses are suitable for use with persistent HTTP (i.e., they contain a valid Content-Length header), then I think you may satisfy your goal. -- Scott On Thu, Jun 26, 2008 at 10:33 AM, Scott Moonen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ross, it seems to me that there are a number of potential hurdles to > holding a connection open for a long period: > >1.
