Re: apache prefork or worker? other settings
Aljosa, The docs are really good. ( http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/modpython/ ) I can attest that you should definitely use prefork instead of worker. I was getting random crashes on our server until I realized that one of my admins installed worker. Switching to prefork fixed everything.

Re: Deploying django framework with site
Tim, The django module just needs to be on the python path, which you can set in the mod_python configuration. So you could do something like: /My Site /myproject /site-packages /django Shouldn't be to difficult as long as you put both /My Site/myproject and /site-packages on the python path.

Re: how to handle django static files(css js etc) properly.the views.static.serve or apache's SetHandler None just too eerie
I recommend this approach because it works seamlessly when
transferring between production and development:
1. Put your static files in the repository (assuming you are using one)
2. On the production server, add these lines to the site config
so this doesn't get used except on development boxes:
Alias /static "/home/myproject/static"
SetHandler None
3. At the end of your primary urls.py put:
(
r'^static/(?P.*)$',
'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT}
),
4. In your settings file add:
import os
SETTINGS_FILE_FOLDER = os.path.dirname(__file__)
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(SETTINGS_FILE_FOLDER, 'static')
5. I use it on all my projects so I can see the static files and
modify them locally, but it seamlessly lets Apache serve them on the
production server

Re: CSS & Media files
mOne,
I use a system that uses the main urls.py and a change on the apache
site config.
This allows me to have all the files in one repository and see it when
I'm using the development server,
but use apache to deliver the files when on the production server.
in urls.py you put in:
(
r'^static/(?P.*)$',
'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT}
),
Then in the apache site config you put:
Alias /static "/home/myproject/static"
SetHandler None
I hope that helps,
corey

Re: Left Joins / Inheritance / Plugins ...whatever...
Mike, What comes to mind is an intermediary table, a Many-to_many table. Design 1: This design depends on a separate Model that lists the available plugins, but would require a manual join of the plugin_table_id to the appropriate model/table. The plugin model tells you which type of link you are doing. PatronPluginLink patron = ForeignKey(Patron) plugin = ForeginKey(Plugins) plugin_table_id = IntegerField() Design 2: This is easier to model, but more restrictive. The downside is you have to add fields to this table when you add plugins. PatronActivities patron = ForeignKey(Patron) auditioner = ForeignKey(Auditioner) ticketpurchase = ForeignKey(TicketPurchse) ... But these are just off the top of my head. Hope they could help.

Re: Ho do your Django applications fit in your projects?
Hello, I've found that each application should be specific in its functionality. How you organize it really depends on the type of project. A simple blog might only be one application. Our intranet site has 7, including a settings.py file, if necessary. I think how coupled or decoupled you can make applications depends on the project. For example I have several applications that do very specific functionality, but all of them rely on a shared set of tables that I've grouped into a "Core" application. In the same project I have apps that are completely independent. If you post more description of your project, I'd be happy to give you some suggestions.

As you can see in the UPDATE statement, it is relative to the

periods, but that's my bug)

Re: long-running process. how to do it?
You, know I just found that utility last week. As far as just doing an os.spawn*, my recollection is that if your process ends, the spawned process ends, even if you are not waiting for it to return. In the case with a web server, as soon as you return from your view, the spawned process ends. The daemonize process, full detaches itself from the spawning process so it can survive after the spawning process ends.

Re: HTTP response-code for missing querystring?
I see your point. In your example, if the query string is left off, I would just show a blank form, unless there is some overriding reason that they couldn't fill in one or more of the fields. But I guess sometimes you have to deviate from the rules.

Re: HTTP response-code for missing querystring?
I'm not sure I can appreciate why you would require a URL to have a query string. It seems to go against the anti-crufty URLs that Django is trying to avoid. Query strings, if I understand them correctly are really meant to provide a subset or context of an otherwise working page. So with that in mind, I would recommend that you show a page with empty results, such as "No results were found."

Re: How to correct this error?
Believe it or not, latin1_swedish_ci is a default collation for MySQL. I recommend using PHPMyAdmin. It is the easiest way to see the collations and change the collations. (but you have to use PHP :( ) You can use the MySQL Administrator GUI but it is a pain as you have to do a lot more clicking to get into the tables and see the collations. I don't know how to do it from the command line, as I have always used PHPMyAdmin to do it.

Re: How to correct this error?
You can change to collation of your MySQL tables by table and by
field. If you do it by table, all new fields are of that collation.
If you already have fields of a collation, you will have to change
all of them.
I used PHPMyAdmin to do it as the interface is nice and simple. You
probably will also be able to do it with the MySQL Admin tool that
they have as a download.

Re: Creating new apps
Charles,I've always seen a Project as a Site. Although there are situations that that may not be true, for most of us, it probably is.I've seen an App as a grouping of functionality. Examples would be Blog, Forums, News, Gallery, etc.Good design practices should keep as much internal within each App as possible, so you can use the app with other projects. That is why you would have a urls.py and a views.py in each App directory.Each App is linked into the main project by: INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py and configuring a base url (eg. /blog ) that then references the App's urls.py.For authentication, you can use the contrib.auth. They don't have access to the admin unless they are a member of staff.Hope that helps,CoreyOn Aug 29, 2006, at 12:16 PM, charles sibbald wrote:Hi Guillermo,Thanks for the help.I have been on your SVN, but how do i tell Django that each little app has its own urls.py? is putting it in the directory enough to automatically let django know that each little app has its own urls.py?Also for authenticating users, do i use django.contrib.auth, which is the same as the admin system.I dont want users to have access to my backend system.RegardsCharles- Original Message From: Guillermo Fernandez Castellanos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>To: django-users@googlegroups.comSent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 3:47:51 PMSubject: Re: Creating new appsHi,I did my own homepage (www.haruki.eu) where I have several"applications" done together.As I understood after asking in the list and looking at severalproject svn trees, the 2nd way seems to be prefered for a sizableapplication.

Why don't you:

No text yet.

That will get a myText field passed in the post/get parameter.

I think that the problem is using the same connection more than once.
I think that the cursor is being closed and then being used again.
I took the habit of creating a new cursor and specifically closing
it, and then creating a new one for each query, assuming you are
doing some custom querying.
I wish I could be of more help...

Re: showing future events only?
I thought a change was made in the generic date views to show only
future events. It is the allow_future parameter, I believe.

Re: How do I store project in subversion?
I'm probably not the best person to be answering this, but I do have an internal subversion repository.If you don't have a working subversion server, follow the instructions at: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html(Since it's an internal machine, I just use basic authentication.)To create a repository, follow the instructions at: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/ch05s02.htmlThis chapter gives some guidance on the layout or structure of the repository.An example, that should work (going from memory):$ svnadmin create /home/svn$ mkdir tmpdir$ cd tmpdir$ mkdir myproject$ mkdir myproject/trunk$ mkdir myproject/branch$ mkdir myproject/tags$ cp /path/to/real_project/* myproject/trunk/$ svn import . http://myserver/svn/ -m "Initial import."CoreyOn Aug 15, 2006, at 3:52 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:I was wondering if someone could tell me how they store the djangoproject in subversion.

Re: Searching in admin doesn't search -- returns everything
I'll be happy to. I did put in a track item for this (although I can't remember what the number is).I'm using PostgreSQL 8.1The models are at: http://paste.e-scribe.com/1125/This is actually a combination of two related errors: One that leads to a searching error (?e=1) and another that leads to a ProgrammingError (identified in the track item)Here is the scenario:1. Foreign Key in the ordering2. Foreign Key is not a typical "id" key (using primary_key=True) (I'm assuming this, BTW)If the Foreign key IS IN the search_fields, everything will return and you will see a ?e=1 in the query string of the results.If the Foreign key IS NOT IN the search_fields, you will get a ProgrammingError, missing FROM-clause (the foreign key is used in the ORDER BY clause but is not JOINed)In my models, the Address model is the problem. The ZIP_Code model is used as the primary ordering field. Really, I just need the zipcode number, but it obviously references the entire object.I had this exact same problem with my Route model, when I used the ZIP_Code model in the ordering and search_fields. I was able to get around it because the primary key is a concatenation of zipcode-carrier route.I hope I've given you enough information, and I really hope I just made a silly mistake somewhere. :)Thanks for the attention,CoreyOn Aug 11, 2006, at 11:01 AM, Adrian Holovaty wrote:On 8/10/06, Corey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I have a model with several foreign keys.

Re: How to log ALL queries
David,Not sure if this helps, but the only way I found (using postgresql) was to turn on query logging in postgresql.

The only thing I’ve found in the documentation looks like a way to see a query’s information right after it’s executed. Ideally, I’d like to get every query logged into a file that I can use to fix the SQL outside Django prior to trying to fix the code.

Re: show many2many data as comma-separated-text. fast/optimal solution?
I may be showing my ignorance of Django and python here but:
in MySQL there is an aggregate function GROUP_CONCAT that will do
precisely what you want. There is a PostgreSQL library that adds the
functionality as well.
I'm still getting used to the ORM is Django, so I'm not sure how you
would add that in, but I'm sure there is a way. Otherwise raw SQL
works, too.

'got multiple values for keyword argument' error
Hey All!
I'm trying to debug a view but I'm getting an error that I can't trace.
The error is:
TypeError at /reservations/pubs/42/
select_date_for_pub() got multiple values for keyword argument 'pub'
but the local vars in the error screen shows:
callback_kwargs {'template_name': 'select_date.html', 'pub': '42'}
The urls.py (simplified):
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^pubs/(?P\d{1,2})/$',
'reservations.views.select_date_for_pub', {'template_name':
'select_date.html'}),
)
Any ideas where I'm going wrong?
Thanks!
Corey

I have no idea if this is the right place to post such a thing, but
in an effort to give something back to the community, I would like to
post a template tag I developed:
Comments are appreciated,
Thanks,
Corey

"Tags used by the reservation app"
from django import template
register = template.Library()
def columnize(parser, token):
"""
Put stuff into columns. Can also define class tags for rows
and cells
Usage: {% columnize num_cols [row_class
[,row_class2...]|'' [cell_class[,cell_class2]]] %}
num_cols: the number of columns to format.
row_class: can a comma (no spaces, please) separated list
that cycles (utilizing the cycle code)
can also put in '' for nothing, if you want no
row_class, but want a cell_class.
cell_class: same format as row_class, but the cells only
loop within a row. Every row resets the
cell counter.
Typical usage:
{% for o in some_list %}
{% columnize 3 %}
{{ o.name }}
{% endcolumnize %}
{% endfor %}
"""

Re: Custom template tags not loading
Don,Thanks for the reply. When I put in {% load reservations.reservationtags %} I get:'reservations.reservationtags' is not a valid tag library: Could not load template library from django.templatetags.reservationtags, No module named reservationtagsAny other ideas?Thanks,CoreyOn Jun 15, 2006, at 5:57 PM, Don Arbow wrote:On Jun 15, 2006, at 2:05 PM, Corey wrote: Hi All!I've written a custom template tag, but I get the error:'reservationtags' is not a valid tag library: Could not load templatelibrary from django.templatetags.reservationtags, No module namedreservationtagsI've looked in the archives and have tried everything I know so far:1. templatetags directory is in the same level as models.py2. templatetags has two files: __init__.py and reservationtags.py3. I ran python manage.py shell, and executed:from pennysaver.reservations.templatetags import reservationtagsand received no error.4. reservationtags.py has: register = template.Library() andregister.tag('columnize', do_columnize) The error is probably not in your module (note in the error, django is appending 'django' to its search path), but in the {% load %} tag in your template. You didn't specify what your template looks like. When you code the load, do not include 'templatetags' in the path, so in your template the load statement should look something like{% load reservations.reservationtags %}Don

Re: Django on Intel mac?
I have MacBook, and although it was a challenge to get everything up and running, I ended up using darwinports to install apache 2, mysql 5 and python 2.4.
