Re: Django newbie with issues
Hi, Thought I'd update you all and bring this thread to a close. The issue was down to a typo on my part. This was corrected and symlink recreated, things seem to be ok now.

Re: Django newbie with issues
Hi, We already have django developers here and talking to them they would like to move to 1.4 but they have not had any meaningful discussions with all the interested parties to know when this is likely to be. I'll pass your advice back to them and see what happens though knowing the pace this place works at don't hold your breath.

Re: Django newbie with issues
Hi, Thanks for your comments on version numbers, but moving to 1.4 isn't a quick option for me/us so I'm stuck on 1.1 for a while. Trying to run the app and instead of getting the "welcome" page I get the following, see below. Not withstanding my version issue, anyone got any ideas on this.

Re: Django newbie with issues
Hi, We did try things with v1.5, but that also failed. Looking further it seems that my branch on git was wrong. Moving to the correct one for 1.1 has seemed to have corrected things, well we got past that issue. I'm going to continue with the tutorial now and see how that goes.
