I missed that, I see that the latest docs
 
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.list_filter
Specifically state: "Fields in list_filter can also span relations using the __ 
lookup:"

I don't see that verbiage for other fields, perhaps a Doc enhancement is in 
order?

There is no need for any Django change to get this to work today. All that
needs to be done is for the existing callables specified in list_display to
specify the appropriate admin_order_field value, e.g.:


def Client_Lastname(self, obj):
return  obj.CustomerId.lastName
Client_Lastname.admin_order_field  = 'CustomerId__lastName'

Doc on admin_order_field is here:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.2/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.list_display,
search for admin_order_field.

MEDIA_URL isn't relevant for the problem you are reporting. MEDIA_ROOT is.
It would help people help you if you shared what value you have been trying
for MEDIA_ROOT.

Sure. This is what I came up with to reduce the long times I was
seeing (but it still is slow). This is probably going to get ugly in
email, maybe I should have dpasted it:

items = Post.objects.filter(topic__forum=8).order_by('-
creation_date').select_related('topic', 'user', 'topic_forum')[:30]

produces (time 0.289 seconds):

SELECT `forums_post`.`id`, `forums_post`.`topic_id`,
`forums_post`.`user_id`, `forums_post`.`creation_date`,
`forums_post`.`update_date`, `forums_post`.`body`,
`forums_post`.`html`, `forums_post`.`user_ip`, `forums_topic`.`id`,
`forums_topic`.`forum_id`, `forums_topic`.`name`,
`forums_topic`.`creation_date`, `forums_topic`.`user_id`,
`forums_topic`.`view_count`, `forums_topic`.`sticky`,
`forums_topic`.`locked`, `forums_topic`.`post_count`,
`forums_topic`.`update_date`, `forums_topic`.`last_post_id`,
`auth_user`.`id`, `auth_user`.`username`, `auth_user`.`first_name`,
`auth_user`.`last_name`, `auth_user`.`email`, `auth_user`.`password`,
`auth_user`.`is_staff`, `auth_user`.`is_active`,
`auth_user`.`is_superuser`, `auth_user`.`last_login`,
`auth_user`.`date_joined` FROM `forums_post` INNER JOIN `forums_topic`
ON (`forums_post`.`topic_id` = `forums_topic`.`id`) INNER JOIN
`auth_user` ON (`forums_post`.`user_id` = `auth_user`.`id`) WHERE
`forums_topic`.`forum_id` = 8  ORDER BY `forums_post`.`creation_date`
DESC LIMIT 30

This:
items = Post.objects.filter(topic__forum__in=forums).order_by('-
creation_date').select_related('topic', 'user', 'topic_forum')[:30]

produces (in 7.357 seconds)

SELECT `forums_post`.`id`, `forums_post`.`topic_id`,
`forums_post`.`user_id`, `forums_post`.`creation_date`,
`forums_post`.`update_date`, `forums_post`.`body`,
`forums_post`.`html`, `forums_post`.`user_ip`, `forums_topic`.`id`,
`forums_topic`.`forum_id`, `forums_topic`.`name`,
`forums_topic`.`creation_date`, `forums_topic`.`user_id`,
`forums_topic`.`view_count`, `forums_topic`.`sticky`,
`forums_topic`.`locked`, `forums_topic`.`post_count`,
`forums_topic`.`update_date`, `forums_topic`.`last_post_id`,
`auth_user`.`id`, `auth_user`.`username`, `auth_user`.`first_name`,
`auth_user`.`last_name`, `auth_user`.`email`, `auth_user`.`password`,
`auth_user`.`is_staff`, `auth_user`.`is_active`,
`auth_user`.`is_superuser`, `auth_user`.`last_login`,
`auth_user`.`date_joined` FROM `forums_post` INNER JOIN `forums_topic`
ON (`forums_post`.`topic_id` = `forums_topic`.`id`) INNER JOIN
`auth_user` ON (`forums_post`.`user_id` = `auth_user`.`id`) WHERE
`forums_topic`.`forum_id` IN (3, 4, 14, 2, 6, 9, 8, 10, 5, 7, 11, 12,
13, 16) ORDER BY `forums_post`.`creation_date` DESC LIMIT 30

Each Post has a foreign key to a Topic and each Topic has a foreign
key to a Forum.

I guessing all those INNER JOIN's are killing me here.

Thanks.

Well it is really hard to say without knowing what that javascript
does or seeing your code. The javascript might be error-ing out mid-
way through and leaving your HTML in a bad way.

Get it working first without the fancy javascript. Then add one thing
in at a time, it will be easier to debug that way.

Also, look in the debug server output for HTTP responses to requests
for the javascript and CSS assets. If you see 404 then you know
something isn't right with your static files setup. If you don't see
any requests for the javascript or CSS, you probably forgot to output
the  and

I see. There are in fact only 15 forums. But why does it take 40
seconds? I can get much better results if I do a select on each forum
individually and combine them together in Python code. So in this case
15 selects is far better than 1. Maybe that's an expected result in
some cases, but it sure surprised me.

Thank you for that, that helps a bit.

Re: Another problem with django static files

[jim_rain]

Brian -

Thanks for the reply - I missed that step. But when I added it the
behavior changed but still no joy. The form has text field in addition
to the date picker - it looks like this:

class JTestForm(forms.Form):
input  = forms.CharField(label='Please enter some input',
max_length=100)
start_time =
JqSplitDateTimeField(widget=JqSplitDateTimeWidget(attrs={'date_class':'datepicker','time_class':'timepicker'})),

In my template I was outputting {{ form.as_p }}

I would see the CharField but not the date picker. So I changed my
template to {{ form.media }} then I don't see anything (neither
field) .

Also when I do that the out put from runserver changed to: "GET /myApp/
jtest/ HTTP/1.1" 200 283

Any other suggestions or ideas are very welcome as I'm pretty
stumped.

Jim

I studied the SQL that Django generated and it seemed fine to me.
That's why I wonder if it is a MySQL issue since the EXPLAIN said it
had a possible key (PRIMARY) but then ended up not using it (bottom

  Hi Bill: 
Thanks for taking the time to answer. I've run into more
dependency problems than I am willing to take the time to
resolved on the little feller. I'm thinking that slax might be
worth looking into. I think it might be more appropriate if I
start a separate thread regarding slax. 
However, FYI I've used up less than 20% of the disk space on the
asus.

Re: django tutorial on asus netbook

[Bill Freeman]

You don't actually need an webserver for a learning scenario, so
apache, or even lighthttp is unnessary.  Django comes with the
"development server" built in.  Python itself listens on a port for
HTTP requests.

Of somewhat more importance is a database.  You can't do much
without one.  While you can use a database over the net, letting
you run somewhere else, you would need connectivity.  I'd suggest
that you start with SQLite, which ought to be available for you.  If
I'm not mistaken, more recent Python versions come with it built
in.  In any even, it's pretty light weight, and the Django docs and
tutorials all tell you how to set it up (it's actually easier to configure
than most deployment grade databases).  All the data will be in a
file that you can save a copy of before trying something new, or
just delete to start over, without having to know how to get a database
to drop your tables, etc.

Python 2.4.4 is a bit long in the tooth.  I'm tempted to suggest
working with a newer version, but xandros, like most distros,
probably depends on having its favorite version around, so you
can't just replace it.  It is possible to have more than one version
installed, but that will eat into what I'm assuming is flash disk.
And 2.4.4 will likely work just fine withDjango and most of its
tutorials.  If you find a piece of code in a tutorial that gives
unexpected errors, however, remember that folks writing new
tutorials may choose to use some features that weren't there
in 2.4.  On the other hand, if you do decide to have a second
install, DO NOT go all the way to the 3.x version.  Only go as
far as 2.7.x, and even that has a few quirks (that mostly turn
to depracation warnings).  I'd really suggest the latest 2.6.x
if you're going to do it, and either read carefully about using
'altinstall' rather than 'install' when you build it (if there is no
package) or set the prefix so that it gets installed in your home
directory, where it won't replace the meaning of 'python' for
your system tools.

Have fun,
Bill

Slow query on MySQL

[Brian Neal]

I apologize in advance as this is probably only tangentially related
to Django.

I have a forums type Django application. In my RSS feed class I had
this Django model query:

return Post.objects.filter(topic__forum__id=obj.id).order_by(
'-creation_date').select_related(depth=2)[:30]

It seemed to work okay, but was slow (2 seconds). I was able to reduce
the time it took by more carefully extracting only the fields I needed
with values_list().

But then I changed it to use an "in" operation:

forums = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
return Post.objects.filter(topic__forum__in=forums).order_by(
'-creation_date').select_related(depth=2)[:30]

This query took over 40 seconds! Again, I can reduce this time using
values_list and a smaller list of fields, but even then it is 4
seconds or so.

I did an EXPLAIN on each of the queries, see the link below. The top
one is the fast one, and the bottom one is the slow one:

http://dpaste.com/524697/

I am not a MySQL expert and I need help interpreting the results. It
looks like for whatever reason, on the slow one, MySQL identified a
possible index, but then decided not to use it?

I ended up working around it by doing the work in Python: I looped
over all the forum ids in the "in" list, making the first query for
each, and then had to combine and sort the results myself.

I'm using InnoDB if that matters. Did I do something wrong or is this
a MySQL issue?

Thanks for any insights.

Another problem with django static files

[jim_rain]

I'm running Django 1.2.5 on a linux (Centos 5.5) server and I'm trying
to use a datepicker widget written by Aaron Williamson (http://
copiesofcopies.org/webl/2010/04/26/a-better-datetime-widget-for-
django/)

I followed all the steps in his write up but when I try to access the
form with the datepicker on it I don't see anything and the runserver
outputs: "GET /myApp/jtest/ HTTP/1.1" 200 409

I'm pretty sure this is because Django can't find my media files but I
can't figure out why. I have added this to my urls.py:

(r'^site_media/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': '/home/jim/work_area/site_base/site_media',
'show_indexes': True}),

and when I go to http://localhost/site_media I see a directory listing
of all the media directories and files.

In my widget class I have the following inner class:

class Media:
css = {
'all' : ("site_media/css/ui-lightness/jquery-
ui-1.8.11.custom.css", ),
}
js = (
"site_media/js/jqsplitdatetime.js",
"site_media/js/jquery-1.5.1.min.js",
"site_media/js/jquery-ui-1.8.11.custom.min.js",
)

I thought that would do it but apparently not. Can anybody tell me
what I"m missing?

Thank you.

Re: Queryset cloning is very expensive

Sorry for the late response.

Maybe it's sufficient to override the QuerySet clone method to just return
self, not really clone it.

Re: Using success_url with reverse() in class-based generic view

[rb]

I just ran into this today and was curious. My setup is this:

class MyGenericView(DeleteView):
success_url = reverse('my-name')

This will produce the from the original author. I got around this by
overriding get_success_url():

class MyGenericView(DeleteView):
def get_success_url(self):
return reverse('my-name')

Is this the preferred/proper way to accomplish this? While looking
around in the tickets I did find this ticket:

http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/13753

This made me believe that maybe the generic views were using
redirect() (which can accept names), but I tried setting success_url
to 'my-name' and it sends an HttpRedirectResponse with that as the
target. Looking in django.views.generic.edit shows that it is just
calling HttpRedirectResponse. Should these call redirect() instead of
HttpRedirectResponse?

Thanks!

There are some options:

You'll find http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/10743

If this "bug" were fixed, your problem would be solved

Would search work as an alternative??
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.search_fields

search_fields = ['foreign_key__related_fieldname']
i.e.
search_fields = ['user__email']


You can filter on them on the right ( this isn't going to work for names)

suspiciousoperation with file upload on django-cms

[Tony]

I am using django-cms for my project right now and I am using their
file and image plugins on my pages, but when I try to upload a file, I
get a suspiciousoperation error.  I have looked at my media_url and
media_root, and played with them but I haven't been able to have any
success.  There is also a django cms media root which I have played
with too.  I have gotten this error on the dev server as well as
apache.  I have set file upload permissions to 0644 as well (which was
recommended by others with similar problems).  All other media files
work properly.  Here is my traceback.

Re: Clueless Monk

Shawn is right, Python *is* awesome ^_^

Soon you will be whispering sweet nothings to your IDE as your code just
gracefully glides along. But then, you will hit a glass window, and fall
swiftly to the ground with all the grace of a blind pigeon, whilst screaming
at your IDE because python/stackless is throwing memory errors or seg
faulting when you try implementing threads.

It's at that point, that these mailing lists become *very* handy :D

Re: Clueless Monk

[Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd]]

Probably best place to ask this question is the Python mailing list tbh
(although others here may be willing to help out!).

I myself, learned Python by writing a memory injection exploit for the Eve
Online game, which gave me the ability to inject Python code directly into
the game. I didn't know wtf I was doing at the time lmao, but it sure was
fun ;D

One thing I will give you a heads up on, is the dir() function. If someone
had pointed that out to me to begin with, it would have saved me *a lot* of
time :D

Sorry for the rather random reply!

Re: Clueless Monk

A good way to start is to go to the Python Web site, do the tutorial,
and then graduate to the Python mailing list. Welcome to Python --
it's awesome!

This list is for Django, so this isn't on-topic for this list.

Re: sorting in /admin

yeah we want it split into first name and last name.  That part is
working fine... i'm just trying to figure out how to get the column
sortable by clicking on the column header.

Re: sorting in /admin

Hmm i dont know but if you dont realy need 2 separate colums for name
and surname you can define in Customer __unicode__ like that:

def __unicode__(self):
   return self.lastName + " " + self.firstName

and then in list_diplay = ['CustomerId'],
but that solution could give ou another problems

Re: sorting in /admin

Why are you doing this way ?
The better idea is to make it that way:

class YourModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
   model = YourModel
   list_display = [ 'firstName', 'lastName' ]

admin.site.register(YourModel, YourModelAdmin)

and i'm sure then you will be able to sort olums

Unicode string writed on boolean field in model

[Siara]

Hi i think that i found 'funny' thing during writing my app.
I have app which returns JSON with data for second app. Interesting
part of my JSON looks like that:

"availability_internet" : "True",
"availability_phone" : "False",

In seconds app models.py i have lines like that:

availability_internet = models.BooleanField(verbose_name = 'Dostępność
przez internet', default=False)
availability_phone = models.BooleanField(verbose_name = 'Dostępność
przez telefon', default=False)

In second app i have script to fetch data from first app and to save
them in database, i'm doing it like that:

model_instance = model(**kwargs)
model_instance.save()

where kwargs is dictionary obtained through JSON.

And now goes the 'funny' thing, during debugging my app i found that
after i save model_instance it has fields like that:

availability_internet - unicode: True
availability_phone -  unicode: False

and that was looking in app admin panel like both fields are set to
True.

I found a way to fix it, but in my opinion i should get error during
model_instance.save().
And there is a question did anyone have similar problem, or could
confirm that this is realy is bug ?

sorting in /admin

[Bobby Roberts]

I am listing the following fields from the model in /admin as follows:

[...snip...]

def Client_Lastname(self, obj):
 return  obj.CustomerId.lastName

def Client_Firstname(self, obj):
 return  obj.CustomerId.firstName

list_display = ('Client_Firstname', 'Client_Lastname', )

[...snip...]


The Firstname and Lastname fields from the Client model drop right
into the list fine but I cannot sort on these fields when i click the
column header.  What do I need to do to make them sortable?

Problem with paths

[Mishen'ka]

Hi everyone,

I have a strange problem. On my home server, everything works.
I have a Ubuntu server with all things installed what i needed.
Now i want to emigrate all things to a live configuration

situation:

path of project:
/home/django/profile/settings.py

because i use Plesk on OpenSuse i needed to make a fastcgi file.
Mod_python doesnt work on some way.

so i have created a file like mysite.fcgi:


#!/usr/bin/python
import sys, os

# Add a custom Python path.
sys.path.insert(0, "/home/django")
sys.path.append('/home/django/profile')

#Calculate the path based on the location of the WSGI script.
apache_configuration= os.path.dirname(__file__)
project = os.path.dirname(apache_configuration)
workspace = os.path.dirname(project)
sys.path.append(workspace)

# Switch to the directory of your project. (Optional.)
os.chdir("/srv/www/vhosts/test.com/httpdocs")

# Set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable.
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "profile.settings"

from django.core.servers.fastcgi import runfastcgi
runfastcgi(method="threaded", daemonize="false")


Now i have make all files redirecting to the mysite.fcgi.

But it doesnt work.
If i go to test.com i get the follow message:

---
Page not found (404)
Request Method: GET
Request URL:http://www.test.com/srv/www/
vhosts/test.com/httpdocs/
---

The rewrite :
---



Options MultiViews FollowSymLinks +Includes +ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{PATH_INFO} !-f
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ mysite.fcgi/$1 [QSA,L]


---

I have changed my domain trough test.com because it isn't relevant

Can someone find the solution?

Thanks

RE: Implementing a ldap db backend

[Sells, Fred]

I'm using my own auth and ldap via python-ldap as a query only; others maintain 
it.  My only issue is that of response.  I query all the groups I care about 
and get all their members and keep that in a MySQL db that I refresh every 5 
minutes of an unrelated cron job.

Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2011 9:19 AM

Subject: Re: Implementing a ldap db backend

 

I have read and tested some more libs.

 

My concern is that:

 

django-ldapdb (http://opensource.bolloretelecom.eu/projects/django-ldapdb/): 
amazing idea, I'm working very well to query users, having some issues to write 
on LDAP but is more probably due server stuff and not django-ldapdb itself. 
Probably django-ldapdb is a good start for a backend, but doesn't have much 
documentation, mostly examples only.

 

django-auth-ldap (doc at http://packages.python.org/django-auth-ldap/, source 
at https://bitbucket.org/psagers/django-auth-ldap): testing now, the docs show 
that it's amazing with all backend and update of users working very well at 
user login. This kind of functionality is required for me.

 

Since ldapdb can search, update and add users as I see in code we just need to 
do some work on lookups and doc, because istartswith as example doesn't works, 
but it is not much trouble I guess. At other side ldapdb lacks a authentication 
backend that can update user data at login and is easy to update django tables 
like auth-ldap does (see documentation). I'll use both for now because my time 
about it is very small but in future I'm ready to join on efforts to merge both 
apps and construct a full ldap backend / ldap orm for django.

It would be big...

BTW "pumpkin" is another project that attempts an ORM-like (let's say
ODM) interface.  It's not django integrated, i.e. it's not a ldap-nonrel
backend for the Django ORM, it's a separate Somewhat-Django-ORM-like
ODM.  http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pumpkin/0.1.0

I'd also recommend taking a close look at ldap.schema.models in
python-ldap source itself - it's "half an ODM" in itself, though it
can't save and still doesn't really datatype-map (python-ldap is a thin
layer on top of libldap and returns strings e.g. you get a "FALSE" back
not a python False. Yeargh), it does introspect the schema and handle
some horrible little details of attribute lookup for you.

We also grew something of an ODM for in-house use, sitting on top of
python-ldap, doing a little mapping of datatypes (only just enough for
our needs), allowing saving.  It's unreleased at time of writing and,
um, what happens to it later won't be up to me.  Pumpkin is probably
better anyway.  Our Django ORM integration, such as it is, is by "fake"
surrogate django models in RDBMS.  So again not a /backend/ for the
django ORM - Instead we (ab)use entryUUID and syncrepl entryCSN ldap
operational attributes to keep some almost featureless "LDAPEntry" model
instances in the RDBMS roughly in-sync via polling*.  This allowed
signals to fire etc so a django/celery based system can be somewhat
reactive to directory changes both inside and  outside its control.  But
our ldap directory is and will remain fairly small (thousands to tens of
thousands of entries) having an RDBMS row for every entry in ldap works
out okay, you wouldn't want to do it that way with a giant directory.

(* We toyed with the idea of making a full-blown syncrepl client on top
of python-ldap for something lighter weight than polling, but that's not
a small job either.  And there's some support in openldap for having
/slapd backend to RDBMS/, i.e. swap the problem around, but it's limited
and really only suited for specific setups...)

P.S. ldaptor also exists and is a pure-python lowlevel ldap interface
(unlike python-ldap which is on top of openldap libldap, so fully
bug-compatible with libldap)

If your transaction throws an error then you must explicitly rollback
the transaction before you continue.

This is a requirement of the SQL standard, not just a PostgreSQL
issue. I can see it would be fairly hard to Google an answer for.

I would guess you started a transaction and then didn't check for
success on an earlier database action before continuing to issue

Where to put generic Database Tables?

[Andre Lopes]

Hi,

I'm trying to start with Django.

I'm developing an App. This App is called "Directory" and will store
info about websites.

I must to create a database table called "Genders", but this is a
generic database table and could be used in other App.

My question... how to deal with this kind of situation in Django? And
in wich model I shuld put this database table?

Look in the postgres log file, by default it should log the first error and the 
subsequent errors

If not, you can add:
log_statement = 'all'
to your postgresql.conf and see every statement...

Re: Postgresql transaction error

[Shawn Milochik]

The cause is that there's a problem with a line of code that interacts
with the database, leaving the database connection dirty and unusable.

The error occurs not at that line of code, but at the next line of
code which tries to use the database connection.

The solution is to use pdb and/or logging to figure out where the
problem is and fix it. It's probably easier to just step through with
pdb. If you want help with that we can meet up in the #django IRC.

Postgresql transaction error

[cootetom]

Hi, I've been trying to use Postgresql because I'm thinking of using
that instead of MySQL due to it's ability to role back transactions
making it easier to use South. However I've hit a wall with it and
can't seem to fix it.

I'm using the psycopg2 python library and have tried postgresql 8 and
now 9.

The error, in brief, is:

"
Template error
In template c:\python26\lib\site-packages\django\contrib\admin
\templates\admin\base.html, error at line 58
Caught DatabaseError while rendering: current transaction is aborted,
commands ignored until end of transaction block
"

By searching Google for this error I have found loads of discussion on
it but nothing that I have been able to apply in order to fix my
scenario. I'm getting this error when visiting the Django admin site
which is probably adding to my confusion because it's code that I'm
not able to debug.

Has anyone else got any information on this error, or better, a
solution?

Re: installing docutils on Dreamhost

[Jason Haury]

Here's my short how-to on getting docultils working on Dreamhost where 
Passenger is used to wrap Django.  At the time of writing, this is the way 
DreamHost recommends one use Python code with web development.  

Using j...@skappber.com's tips below, one can successfully install docutils. 
 Just as others have to communicate this installation path to FastCGI, etc, 
a Passenger user needs to edit their passenger_wsgi.py file.  What I did was 
find the line that says: "sys.path.append(os.getcwd())" then add a line 
right after it that looks something 
like sys.path.append('/home/MY_USER/lib/python2.5/site-packages/').


Substitute MY_USER with the correct user name, and also be aware of what 
python version is actually being run.  Currently, it's 2.5.  In 
the instructions above, it was 2.3.   Change the path accordingly.

Enjoy!

Re: django 1.3

[Casey Greene]

While the tone of the e-mail isn't really appropriate, I think the 
question is a good one.  The most recent update 
(http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2011/mar/03/13-rc/) was from March 
3rd and said that "Barring major issues discovered with this package, 
the final Django 1.3 release will follow a little over a week from now," 
but now it is 19 days later and there has not been a more recent update. 
 Does this mean that major issues were discovered in the RC?


Even a quick note in the weblog about the revised date would be helpful. 
 The earlier updates about the February release of 1.3 getting pushed 
back were helpful in this way.

Hello you can read about here:

So if you can wait more you can get the code from repository (you will
find the access in django site.)  and test the RC and update asap
following the django policy for this.

Re: Parse template variables in custom tag

[Turner]

I think I've solved the issue. Rather than create a Variable object, I
called parser.compile_filters(value) in the parsing function for my
tag. That seems to have done the trick, and seems to internally
resolve with a Variable object all the same.

Re: Django on Windows 7

[shofty]

The installation isn't that tricky. what you will struggle with is
when your project starts to become complex in terms of package
requirements.

i spent a day trying to get PIL installed on windows and in the end
ran out of patience. spent the next day building a hackintosh and
haven't looked back.

this was a year ago, so i hope for your sake things have changed. good
luck.

I know you want a Djangoish solution, but there is a nice small

Good evening,

I need to install Django on Windows 7 due to other requirements for our system. 
I've found documentation showing how to do this, but I don't have a sense of 
how hard this is, how stable it will be, and what the associated issues might 
be. If someone can help enlighten me, I'd appreciate it.

Thank you.

Re: Localization of CharField entries

[Stuart MacKay]

The sync_transmeta_db command will set only the field for the language 
you select when it performs the schema conversion. The others will be 
null so you probably want to add some default content e.g. Needs 
Translation" or simply update all the other fields with the value you 
already have.

Stuart

Re: How make CSRF middleware emit html4 rather than xhtml1.0 (closing tags issue) so will validate?

[Andre Terra]

Hello, Chris

Your forms are "always" going to be created using Form classes, but you can
still customize the template, unless you use {{ form.as_p }} or other
similar methods. These methods are built-in for the sake of simplicity and
writing fast code, but you'll see that most of everything that is built-in
to django (generic views, the admin, form rendering, etc.) are only good in
the short term or for applications with a very small number of users.
Usually the case is that you will use these tools until you reach a point
where you need to do things on your own, and that's when things really get
interesting!

Please see
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/#customizing-the-form-templatefor
information on how to work with forms on your templates. Also consider
carljm's django-form-utils (my personal favorite) and pydanny's
django-uniforms as third-party apps that will most definitely make your life
easier.


Sincerely,
André Terra

Re: Implementing a ldap db backend

[Felipe Prenholato]

I have read and tested some more libs.

My concern is that:

django-ldapdb (http://opensource.bolloretelecom.eu/projects/django-ldapdb/):
amazing idea, I'm working very well to query users, having some issues to
write on LDAP but is more probably due server stuff and not django-ldapdb
itself. Probably django-ldapdb is a good start for a backend, but doesn't
have much documentation, mostly examples only.

django-auth-ldap (doc at http://packages.python.org/django-auth-ldap/,
source at https://bitbucket.org/psagers/django-auth-ldap): testing now, the
docs show that it's amazing with all backend and update of users working
very well at user login. This kind of functionality is required for me.

Since ldapdb can search, update and add users as I see in code we just need
to do some work on lookups and doc, because istartswith as example doesn't
works, but it is not much trouble I guess. At other side ldapdb lacks a
authentication backend that can update user data at login and is easy to
update django tables like auth-ldap does (see documentation). I'll use both
for now because my time about it is very small but in future I'm ready to
join on efforts to merge both apps and construct a full ldap backend / ldap
orm for django.

I have solved this by downgrading the cx_Oracle library from 5.1 to
5.0.1
I am using Oracle 11.2
Now works well both on Django 1.2.5 and 1.3 RC with Python 2.6

About database composite keys.

[Andre Lopes]

Hi,

I'm new to Django and I have some doubts about the Database Design. I
design Databases two years from now but I'm not accustomed to design
databases without composite keys.

I have read that Django does not support composite keys. True?

How is the philosophy of database design in Django... All the tables
must to have one sequence(in PostgreSQL) for the PK and use unique
keys to do the same that a composite key does?

Do you recommend some Database Design readings about Django?

Questions:
All of these code work well on django 1.2.3,but once I use django
1.2.5 or 1.3 rc1,It does not work and have same exception.The
exception information is:

DatabaseError at /admin/test2/test2/add/
(1146, "Table 'test1.test2_test2' doesn't exist")
Request Method: POST
Request URL:http://192.168.1.111/admin/test2/test2/add/
Django Version: 1.3 rc 1
Exception Type: DatabaseError
Exception Value:
(1146, "Table 'test1.test2_test2' doesn't exist")
Exception Location: build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/MySQLdb/connections.py
in defaulterrorhandler, line 36
Python Executable:  /usr/local/bin/python
Python Version: 2.6.5
Python Path:
['/root/testadmin',
 '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg',
 '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.3-py2.6-

 '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/lib-old',
 '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload',
 '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages']


But the most strange thing is that:use the following command:
python manage.py syncdb
python manage.py syncdb --database='test2'
I can create table correctly in different database,also on django
1.2.5 or 1.3 rc1,I do not know whether other people come across this
problem.I also compared the differences between the different versions
of the django source codes about this feature,but did not find
problems.
I use the test environment is:centos5.X+python2.6+mysql

any suggestions?
thx for your time,

as far as I recall transmeta creates the columns by itself with syncdb
or its own utility - I did it with a fully populated database. The only
thing you have to be careful about is whether the fields to be
translated is mandatory or not - I was a bit careless about that.

Thanks for your answer.
Right now the db is full populated, and I have seen that transmeta
need to
create new columns.
Should do thi by hand or there's another approach to this operation
(i.e. South) ?

gettext / po files are for the "static" text only (that is, text in
your source code). Translations of your application data has to be
handled at the, well, application data level (IOW: in your db). There
are quite a few "multilingual model" solutions around, I've been
mostly happy with transmet so far but didn't have to handle more than
3 languages at once - not sure how it would scale for a dozen or more.

Localization of CharField entries

[Luca Casagrande]

Hello everyone,
I'm working on the localization of a Django project and I met some
difficulties. Following the documentation in the section
"Internationalization ", I could easily translate the contents of the
templates and the verbose_name of the model's attributes.
The problem is that one of my models has a notes field (CharField)
with different text for each entry.
What is the best way to translate those values​​, if possible, always
working with po files?

Thank you very much
Luca

that is interesting - so far I have been doing this by overriding
__init__ in the ModelField
