Re: lost admin on upgrade to django 1.3

[zignorp]

Actually I'm not using virtualenv, I just installed the new version on my 
mac

tar xzvf Django-1.3.tar.gz
cd Django-1.3
sudo python setup.py install


 and it overwrote the older version in python/2.6/site-packages/django
(I have 1.1 running on my notebook, that's how I checked where the damn 
admin templates directory was)
I'm just going to quit my project and reinstall and see what happens. Maybe 
I'll install python 2.7 but it's late...
Thanks for the confirmation that I should indeed have that directory.

Re: lost admin on upgrade to django 1.3

[Shawn Milochik]

I'm using Django 1.3, and the templates exist in site-packages.

Within my virtualenv:

lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/login.html


How did you install/upgrade 1.3? Are you using virtualenv? Do you have 
multiple versions of Python on your system?


Try just creating a fresh virtualenv using the --no-site-packages option 
and pip install Django and see if your project will work that way.

Re: lost admin on upgrade to django 1.3

[zignorp]

No, I haven't.
I think it has to do with the way the admin templates are loaded.

I do notice that in my  django 1.1 install there is an existing templates 
directory in site-packages/django/contrib/admin
but in my 1.3 install there is no templates directory. So I think that's the 
problem, I'm trying to wrap my head around how to refer to the admin 
templates, like where the heck are they in this version? Have they gone 
missing in the install (mac 10.6.8)? Or are they someplace totally 
different?
Does that make sense?
Thanks,
Wendy

Re: Mysterious Path Issue Django & Apache

[Devon Young]

I think I'm adding the directories to sys.path correctly. For example,
in my wsgi file, this works:

path = '/home/devon/django-projects/'
if path not in sys.path:
sys.path.append(path)

...but if I change the path value like this, then Apache gives a 500
server error:

path = '/home/devon/code/dj/'
if path not in sys.path:
sys.path.append(path)

...both directories exist, and I've started Django projects in each
(both with the same name so I don't have to change the value I pass
into os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE']

Re: Django Memory hosting issues?

[raj]

**EDIT**
sorry, just another question,
Is it possible to point two domain names to the same application? Its
sort of tough to explain.
In webfaction, It allows me to make an application through the control
panel, and I can link a domain to it. Inside this application, I can
create actual django applications. Can I link one domain to one of
those applications, and another domain to another one of those
applications?

Django Memory hosting issues?

[raj]

Hey guys,
Just need some advice. I currently have a webfaction account, and It
gives me 80mb of space. But I didn't know that each django application
takes up approximately 40mb (ran over the limit without realizing it),
so I can make only a max of 2 different websites. If I want to have
the ability to make as many websites as I want, what would you guys
recommend? Adding on additional memory costs too much money. I was
looking into cloud hosting, but that is really expensive starting off.
If necessary, I would switch to that. Does cloud hosting allow this
type of memory flexability? Do you guys know any cheap cloud hosting,
or a better idea for hosting? Thank you.

Hello,
I just upgraded to 1.3 and thought all was well until I tried to access

Can anyone tell me why I'm getting this exception

Humanizing decimals in templates

[nixlists]

Hi.

The humanize module -
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/contrib/humanize/ does not
support humanizing decimal values similar to 'intcomma', only
integers. Is there an extension to do so, and if not how would one
write one?

How would one use this http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/842/ with a template?


Thanks.

Re: Satchmo, the bloated manatee

[ch...@moffitts.net]

Just for the record, this topic was also posted on the Satchmo list and 
there are some decent performance improvement related discussions. No doubt 
there are configurations of Satchmo that result in less than desirable speed 
but there are some real life comments/examples from folks running big 
stores. Hopefully that will be useful to others that stumble upon this 
thread and are looking for some ideas on how to improve performance.

Thanks,
Chris

Re: Mysterious Path Issue Django & Apache

[Subhranath Chunder]

Check if the base directory is added in you current python path when running
from wsgi
Putting a line like "print >> sys.stderr, sys.path" in your wsgi file right
after the initial import should let you verify that.

Mysterious Path Issue Django & Apache

[Devon Young]

I apologize in advance if this is actually a stupid question, but I'm
thoroughly stumped since yesterday about this.

First, it should be noted I come from a PHP background with a little
experience in Perl, and I'm learning Python since Sunday. Also, I'm
using:

Python 2.7
Apache 2 (with mod_wsgi)
Django 1.3
Ubuntu 11.04

Ok now... I had django workin' perfectly, and then decided I wanted to
move the folder I was keeping my projects & apps in. So I deleted that
folder and made a new one, intending to begin over. At that time, I
also updated the path in the .wsgi file.

All runs fine when I run it as python manage.py runserver, but Apache
now gives me a 500 server error, which in the error.log says
"ImportError: Could not import settings 'combs.settings' (Is it on
sys.path?): No module named movies.settings". Even though the path to
the movies project is completely correct in the .wsgi file.

I've been trying to debug this since yesterday, and just today I
figured out that if I remake the original folder & move my project
there & update the path in .wsgi ... then Apache is happy with it.

I cannot make sense of this. Do I need to uninstall Django & then
reinstall it from scratch? I doubt it's a permissions problem, 'cause
I remade the directory & didn't chmod it differently. Did I have to
hard code something during install that I've forgotten about since? My
head is spinning with all these things to do to keep Django working
that I can't remember half of what I did... altho, when I look back on
the instructions I followed, I can't see anywhere that would get me to
make a hard link or anything.

Does anyone know how I can fix this so I can keep my projects in the
folder I want to keep them?

Re: Django + PyPy = ?

[Bill Freeman]

OK.

Try:

  $ cd /to/whereever/manage.py/is
  $ /home/wsgi/pypy-1.5/bin/pypy
...
   import sys, pprint
   pprint.pprint(sys.path)

Are the directories holding your django install there?

If not, are the directories here pretty much only within (I'm
guessing) /home/wsgi/pypy-1.5/lib ?
That is, the stuff that you've used easy_install or pip install to
install, or python setup.py to
install, may be installed in your python's lib directories, but pypy
may not be falling back to
use those when it doesn't find them in its own lib dirs (I don't know
if it is supposed to).  If
this seems to be the problem, you have a number of options available,
including using
pypy to run ez_setup.py to get an easy_install that installs there,
and reinstalling stuff
using that easy_install, or getting packages from pypi and running
their setup.py files by
hand using pypy.

But before you go to far, find one simple package that you have
installed, something
without a lot of dependencies, in your python, that you can't import
from the pypy prompt,
and see what it takes to install that for pypy.

I don't think anyone should be kicked just for voicing their own opinion.

How many times have we all said "omg X or Y is a bloated pos". How many
times have we personally insulted many other products, such as Windows,
Debian, Apache etc..?

Whenever I build a new project, the first thing I do is show it to other
developers which I trust, and ask for their honest opinion. They will quite
often say to me "Cal, if you write code like this again, I will slap you".
And it's this sort of advice which put me where I am today :)

Re: Satchmo, the bloated manatee

[Bobby Roberts]

opinions on software should never be taken personally and should never
be silenced.  I take heat over programming on a daily basis just as I
have for the past 30 years.  It's part of the business.  Good
programmers take it, grow from it and come back with a better product.

There was no slight intended toward the programmers and I doubt I'm
the only one that has ever said that this version is bloated or with
issues. I am sorry to the Satchmo team, and the sweet gentle aquatic
bovine If I have caused personal insult to either.  I have used
Satchmo for over three years now and it's simply this version which I
believe perhaps was rushed. It seems to be behind the django
compatibility curve and some of the documentation is outdated as well
and not everything works as it should and needs serious tweaking to
the code to get it to even function.

Boot me out if you feel I need to be booted from the group.  However,
that would be the biggest flame to an open source board    note
this is an opinion, i'm not meaning to insult ANYONE.

If i'm allowed to stay, perhaps I will use the new WC3  or

Re: Satchmo, the bloated manatee

[Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd]]

Personally, I don't see why this has caused such a fuss.

It is quite obvious from OPs original message that it was a bit of light
hearted humor.

I think the most appropriate response here would be "loosen up..?"

There is no right to free speech on a mailing list.

We already restrict what's allowed on this list. Beekeeping, wool
socks, hand grenades and a nearly infinite collection of topics are
declared off-topic. Similarly, we have certain community standards --
politeness among them -- and we can and will enforce them.

If you'd like to have an anything-goes forum where insults and flames
are tolerated then I encourage you to start your own. Around here, I
expect a certain level of decorum and I will enforce it.

"This URL appears to be a broken link."

[javatina]

It seems that verify_exists=True as in URLField([verify_exists=True,

site is just fine
http://www.rydex-sgi.com/

However, validation reports "This URL appears to be a broken link."
This URL  http://www.rydexsgi.com/ appears to be OK - in reality it is

[Commercial] Freelance developer looking for long-term/contract based work

[Subhranath Chunder]

Hi,

I'm an experienced Django developer, with good experience in web application
development using Django as the underlying backbone. Have done numerous
projects in this, and my entire work experience is also build around it.

Summary: I love to work on challenging Django/Python projects, which
involves working and experimenting with new and interesting ideas and
technologies.
Fancy my chances to work on performance enhancements and optimizations of
web applications, along with architectural designs of web products.

Skillset: Web application development, Django/Python, GAE, jQuery, Facebook
Application Development

Links to some publicly available code snippets of mine:
http://scratch-blog.appspot.com
https://github.com/subhranath

LinkedIn profile (Needs to update the projects section soon):
http://in.linkedin.com/pub/subhranath-chunder/24/50/a01

Currently, I'm switching work from a full-time employee to a full-time
freelancer.
Thus, I'm looking for some nice and interesting long-term or contractual
opportunity for work engagement.

I could surely use some help to get some project, to get me started on my
freelancer career.
Please let me know if anyone is interested, or need any more details.

Thanks,
Subhranath Chunder.

Any project that's simple enough to be completed by a newbie BUT no
simpler (that is, not the tutorial poll app).

The point is that you have to be one your own with it (no copy-paste
from a tutorial) and that you have to deal with the whole range of
real-life problems. You will of course make a lot of mistakes and the
implementation will very certainly suck, but if and when you complete
it you should be ready to start working on a real project and have a
change to deliver on time something that doesn't suck too much.

Implementing one app for multiple users with their own data.

[mongoose]

Hi,

I've a web app which works nicely on a per user or per company basis.
However I've gotten to the point where I want to run multiple
companies through the same app(not have to redeploy for each client).
However each client needs their own data and shouldn't be able to see
other clients data. A DB per client is probably best but I'm not sure
how I go about implementing this.

In theory I'd like each client to be able to:
-All log in at the same url.
-Each have their own DB and own admin user etc.
-All be running through the same web app.

Do I need something like a master DB which will hold company details
and a DB per company so their data will be stored there?
How would I make sure that for every action in all the apps of my
project that is writes to the correct db for that client?


Any suggestions or help to push me in the right direction is
appreciated.
Thanks.

That's not what the Django documentation says, at least in my reading of it.

If you think things could work better -- we accept patches :-)

However, before you embark on a massive rewrite of Django's i18n and
l10n systems, keep in mind that there are entirely valid historical
reasons why the settings act the way they do -- mostly to do with
maintaining backwards compatibility and retaining the ability to opt
into potentially expensive (and confusing) options. Any proposal to
change Django in a way that loses either of those properties won't be
looked upon favorably.

In particular, if you think the capabilities of USE_L10N could be
subsumed by an expanded interpretation of USE_I18N, I think you need
to take a much closer look at Django's source code, and the mailing
list discussions that led to the introduction of the USE_L10N setting.

Yours,

i18n - preparing an app to be customised in *any* locale
l10n - actually customising it for a *particular locale

One can do i18n *without* doing *any* translation. i18n - marking
strings for translation, l10n - translating the marked strings.

But as far as I read her messages, Lucy was not asking what L10N and
I18N are, she was asking what USE_I18N and USE_l10N do. In Django.

I think the issue with USE_I18N is not so much that it's been kept, but
that it was not expanded to cover USE_L10N's scope as well, with the
ability to enable or disable each subsection of the domain
(translations and localisation of value formats) added on top of that.

I would have made more sense, to me, if USE_I18N enabled *all* of the
relevant l10n, m17n and i18n machinery and if new processes in this
field were added to the flag's purview as they were introduced, bringing
a django project with USE_I18N enabled ever closer to full "effective"
internationalization.

That's not what the Django documentation says, at least in my reading of it.
