Problem serving files from media directory

[neridaj]

Hello,

I've deployed a new website to my staging and production servers but for 
some reason the images in the media directory are displaying 404 errors. 
The path to the image is correct and the image is located at that path:



ls -la ~/.virtualenvs/website/project/media/projects/hair/2012/test-1
total 144
drwxr-x--- 2 username username   4096 Aug 27 16:43 .
drwxr-x--- 3 username username   4096 Aug 27 16:43 ..
-rwxrwxr-x 1 username username 131719 Aug 27 16:43 13221803.jpg

settings.py:

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'media')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

Am I having problems because the image file is nested within other 
directories? Files are being served from the static directory just fine, 
any ideas?

Thanks,

Jason

Re: 404 only in Chrome

[neridaj]

I think it might be related to a jquery plugin i'm using. It appears
that the plugin is not finding an attribute on an image, and is
therefore appending the undefined status to the url in developer
tools. If I comment out the plugin the error is gone.

404 only in Chrome

[neridaj]

Hello,

For some reason I'm getting a 404 in google chrome when I visit /
portfolio/. The url entered is /portfolio/ but it returns as a 404 at /
portfolio/undefined/ in the chrome developer tools window. I read a
post about some issues with chrome handling errors and to resolve it
by unchecking "Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors"
but this didn't help with my problem. I'm not sure why undefined is
being appended to the url, any ideas?

urls.py:

(r'^portfolio/', include('project.urls.web')),

project/urls/web.py:

urlpatterns = patterns('django.views.generic.list_detail',
(r'^$', 'object_list', web_project_info_dict,
'project_web_archive_index'),
(r'^(?P[-\w]+)/$', 'object_detail', web_project_info_dict),
)

If it was a real 404 why isn't my error page displayed i.e., when I
visit /portfolio/non-existent-slug, I get the proper 404 page.

>>> django.VERSION
(1, 2, 0, 'alpha', 0)

Thanks for any help!

Re: Serving static files weirdness

[neridaj]

Got it working by changing the following:

STATIC_ROOT = ''
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
# Put strings here, like "/home/html/static" or "C:/www/django/
static".
# Always use forward slashes, even on Windows.
# Don't forget to use absolute paths, not relative paths.
os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'static'),
)

I'm using Django version 1.3 and the Django devserver. My admin media
is the default: ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/static/admin/'

Serving static files weirdness

[neridaj]

I had my static files being served form media i.e., the tree looked
like this:

media/
/css
/js
/images

with this in my url conf:
if settings.SERVE_MEDIA_FROM_DJANGO:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^media/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': r'media'}),
(r'^tiny_mce/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{ 'document_root': r'media/js/tiny_mc' }),
)

I then switched it to this:

static/
/css
/js
/images

with this in my url conf:
if settings.SERVE_MEDIA_FROM_DJANGO:
urlpatterns += patterns('',
(r'^static/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': r'static'}),
(r'^tiny_mce/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{ 'document_root': r'static/js/tiny_mc' }),
)

I don't understand why changing media to static has stopped django
from serving static files, any ideas?

Cheers,

J

Work around restarting server on image uploads?

[neridaj]

Hello,

Is there a way to get uploaded images to render without having to
restart the server? Whenever I add a new image via the admin interface
I have to restart apache in order for the images to render.

Thanks,

Jason

mysql -> sqlite3 migration error

[neridaj]

I'm trying migrate some tables for the first time and I'm not sure how
to resolve this error. It looks like things fail when this file is
called: films:0006_migrate_country, which in turn is failing to create
the films_filmdistribution table. Any thought on how to resolve this?

Thanks for any help.

ProgrammingError: relation "project_webproject" does not exist

[neridaj]

Hello,

I've been working on a portfolio website that includes an app called
projects. Within this app are the models WebProject and ScreenShot for
project info and related screenshots for display on the portfolio
page. Everything has been working fine up until now, when I try to add
another project. I'm able to add the project and related screenshots
without error but the images for the new project are not being found
when the page is displayed, while the two previous projects display
fine.

When I view the postgresql db tables all the info is there, however,
when I query the tables from within the django interactive shell I'm
getting errors when I try to do a simple select. I tried running
syncdb but that didn't help. I don't have a ton of data in the db yet
so I've been considering dumping the tables but what if this happens a
year down the road, any ideas?

generic view confusion

[neridaj]

I don't understand why my template_object_name is empty in a generic
object_list view. I'm trying to grab all the category names and urls
from my Category model but it's turning up empty, at least
{{ category_list|length }} yields 0. I'm trying to add this info to
the sidebar of a generic object_list view for art projects, so I'm
giving the view the template_name and the template_object_name to
avoid confusion with the generic view it will be included in - already
using the default object_list and app/model_list.html for the main
content. Thanks for any help.

# URL #
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from project.models import Category

project_info_dict = {
'queryset': Category.objects.all(),
'template_name': 'portfolioproject_list.html',
'template_object_name': 'category',
}

urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^$', 'django.views.generic.list_detail.object_list',
project_info_dict, 'category_list'),

Problems with PIL after upgrading to OSX 10.6.2

[neridaj]

I'm having problems with PIL after upgrading to OSX 10.6.2 and was
wondering if anyone else had similar issues or found a fix. I'm
getting the error: The _imaging C module is not installed, so I tried
reinstalling PIL which resulted in the following error:

lipo: can't figure out the architecture type of: /var/folders/Sc/ScD
+ointGXqPrmBQ19Uc2k+++TI/-Tmp-//ccrzTUKs.out

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

If any other mac users have had this problem I would appreciate any
input.


Thanks,

Jason

how to define DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE for multiple sites.

[neridaj]

I'm trying to setup my first cron job and I think the reason my script
is not running is because I don't have DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE defined
for my environment i.e., .profile script. I'm using mod_wsgi so my
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is defined in the respective wsgi file for each
site, so my question is how do I setup a crontab that imports the
correct settings module? I tried this but no luck:

* * * * * django-admin.py shell --settings=sitename.settings /home/
username/cron/syncr.py >> /home/username/croninfo.txt

Practical Django Projects blog app admin not showing entries with draft status

[neridaj]

I'm following along James Bennett's tutorials and when I save an entry
as a draft it doesn't show up in the admin interface for further
editing. When I log in with psql I can see the draft in the database
but the admin doesn't show the draft in the entries, however the draft
is listed in the Tagged Items table. HOw do I get the draft to show up
in the entries, do I need to add something to the admin.py file for
the blog app?

class EntryAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
prepopulated_fields = {'slug': ('title',)}

contrib.comments get_absolute_url raising 404 only on remote server

[neridaj]

I've been testing my site locally and figured I should commit some of
my changes. I'm using django.contrib.comments and for some reason the
comment.get_absolute_url is resulting in a broken link on the live
server. When I mouse over the link the status bar reads the link
correctly i.e., http://mysite.com/comments/cr/12/1/#c5 but when I
click the link the result is 
http://example.com/blog/2010/jan/11/test-title-1/#c5
resulting in: The requested URL /blog/2010/jan/11/test-title-1/ was
not found on this server. If I manually type in my domain instead of
example.com it works as it should, I just don't understand why it's
not resolving with mysite.com.

Totally confused on categorized feeds

[neridaj]

I've been following along James Bennett's Practical Django Projects
and I'm confused on how to render a template with the correct url that
maps to the urlconf for categorized feeds. I understand that the url
needs to be in the form feeds/categories/audio but how do I build this
url in the template without hard coding it? I've tried the following:

urlconf:
feeds = { 'entries': LatestEntriesFeed, 'links': LatestLinksFeed,
'categories': CategoryFeed, 'tweets': LatestTweetsFeed }

(r'^feeds/categories/(?P.*)/$',
'django.contrib.syndication.views.feed', { 'feed_dict': feeds },
'category_feed'),

in the template:

{{ category.title }}

which yields:
Slug u'audio' isn't registered. -- because categories needs to be
passed in to 

...and
(r'^feeds/(?P.*)/$', 'django.contrib.syndication.views.feed',
{ 'feed_dict': feeds }, 'category_feed'),

which results in a malformed url:
/feeds//categories/audio//


Thanks for any help,

J

local variable 'delta' referenced before assignment

[neridaj]

I don't see why this error is happening, the var is assigned.

def moderate_comment(sender, **kwargs):
instance = kwargs['instance']
if not instance.id:
content = instance.content_object
if isinstance(content, Tweet):
delta = datetime.datetime.now() - content.pub_time
else:
delta = datetime.datetime.now() - content.pub_date
if delta.days > 30: #failure



local variable 'delta' referenced before assignment

Thanks,

Jason

mapping url to feed

[neridaj]

I'm trying to retrieve blog entries for a specific category and I'm
not sure how to generate the correct url in my template. here is what
I have:


{{ category.title }}

feeds = { 'entries': LatestEntriesFeed, 'links': LatestLinksFeed,
'categories': CategoryFeed, 'tweets': LatestTweetsFeed }

(r'^feeds/(?P.*)/$', 'django.contrib.syndication.views.feed',
{ 'feed_dict': feeds }, 'category_feed'),

I think I need to have "categories/category.title" to correctly map to
"feeds/categories/category.title" but I'm not sure how/if I should do
that in the template.

Thanks for any help,

Re: Hosting for django?

[neridaj]

I was on Dreamhost for a while but once I needed to install 3rd party
modules I ran into problems. I've since switched to Slicehost VPS -
http://www.slicehost.com/ and would definitely recommend them. If I
was going with shared hosting I would probably use Webfaction -
http://www.webfaction.com/

I'm using nginx, apache2/wsgi and if anyone can help me out I would

django-tagging - how to retrieve individual tags for specific models without duplicates

[neridaj]

Hello,

I can't figure out how to retrieve tags for specific models i.e., I
would like to show tags for entries if I'm on a blog/entry page, tags
for links if I'm on a blog/links page, etc. If I use {{ entry.tags }}
in the templates I get duplicate tags and if an entry has more than
one tag those tags wind up on the same line e.g.,

audio, audiodev, audiotrack,
audio, audiodev,
audio,

I've been trying to query the TaggedItems model in order to get the
related content_type i.e., entry, link, etc. in order to get the
related tags individually but I don't understand how to a) get the
tags, and b) remove duplicates. Essentially I want this
TaggedItem.objects.filter(content_type='entry') and then to be able to
remove duplicates.

TaggedItems has these relationships:

tag  = models.ForeignKey(Tag, verbose_name=_('tag'),
related_name='items')
content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType, verbose_name=_
('content type'))
object_id= models.PositiveIntegerField(_('object id'),
db_index=True)
object   = generic.GenericForeignKey('content_type',
'object_id')

Thanks for any help,

Jason

Re: django not finding modules on pythonpath

[neridaj]

I have a few novice user questions:

1. If I installed apache2 with prefork do I need to uninstall in order
to change to worker?
2. If I add the following lines to my vhost definition does this make
mod_wsgi run in daemon mode?

  WSGIDaemonProcess mysite.com processes=1 threads=5 display-name=%
{GROUP}
  WSGIProcessGroup mysite.com

3. What is the syntax for adding the value of PYTHONPATH to the python-
path= option?
4. What is the syntax for adding the python-path option to
apache2.conf?

Thanks for all your help so far,

Re: django not finding modules on pythonpath

[neridaj]

During development I had my project apps in the same directory that
django-admin.py startproject mysite created. I would now like to have
my apps in a global directory, django-apps, to be used in other
projects. I thought this was what the PYTHONPATH environment variable
was for, do I need to add every PYTHONPATH module directory
from .profile to mysite.wsgi?

would be much appreciated. I'm using the same wsgi script that works
for the other site so I don't see any problem but here it is if you
want to have a look:

import os, sys

path = '/home/username/public_html/mysite.com/'
if path not in sys.path:
sys.path.append(path)

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'mysite.settings'

import django.core.handlers.wsgi

_application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

def application(environ, start_response):
environ['wsgi.url_scheme'] = environ.get('HTTP_X_URL_SCHEME',
'http')
return _application(environ, start_response)

django not finding modules on pythonpath

[neridaj]

Hello,

I'm trying to deploy my project to my server and I don't understand
why django isn't finding modules I've added to my pythonpath. When I
try to access my site I get 500 errors and after looking at the server
log I see a traceback with this:

[error] [client 174.xxx.xxx.xxx] ImportError: No module named blog

However, when I run python I am able to import the modules. I'm using
nginx as a proxy to apache2/mod_wsgi on Ubuntu 9.04.

Thanks,

J

Re: django-tagging module not found

[neridaj]

I'm running django on ubuntu jaunty-9.04, apache2/mod_wsgi, and nginx.
I'm having problems with both of my vhosts resolving to the same
document root, as well as 500 errors with one of the domains. my first
domain works fine i.e., the url resolves to the correct document root,
but when I look up the other vhost I have problems. I think the second
vhost might be having problems because it is defined second in the
order in the apache vhosts. If I look up the second vhost without www
prepended to the url I get 500 errors with the following in the server
log:

[client 174.xxx.xxx.xxx] ImportError: No module named tagging

when I import the tagging module from python it imports with no
errors. My vhost for the domain in question is as follows:

/etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.com:



  ServerName mysite.com
  ServerAdmin supp...@mysite.com
  ServerAlias *mysite.com

  WSGIScriptAlias / /home/username/public_html/mysite.com/mysite.wsgi

django-tagging module not found

[neridaj]

Hello,

I'm trying to deploy my simple app and I've mirrored the project as it
was on my local dev machine. For some reason, when I try to browse to
the url I get a 500 error and the error log says ImportError: No
module named tagging. I've added PYTHONPATH env vars as follows:

export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/public_html/mysite.com/:$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/public_html/mysite.com/mysite:
$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/public_html/mysite.com/mysite/blog:
$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/public_html/mysite.com/mysite/project:
$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/public_html/mysite.com/mysite/search:
$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/public_html/mysite.com/mysite/akismet:
$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/src/akismet-0.2.0:$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/src/django-tagging-0.3:$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/src/Markdown-2.0.3:$PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/src/pydelicious
+tools-0.5.3:$PYTHONPATH
export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=mysite.settings

when I print sys.path tagging is on the path and when I import tagging
from python I get no errors. I've been doing dev on osx, is there some
different syntax to properly add to PYTHONPATH on ubuntu?

Thanks,

J

Re: Accessing model instance on pre_save signal

[neridaj]

I'm trying to access the current instance of ScreenShot related to the
current instance of WebProject, in order to get the slug field of
WebProject to use as a upload directory but I don't think I can
because there's no primary key in the db yet. I need to call
change_upload_to when the instance of WebProject tries to save because
it saves before the instance of ScreenShot i.e., before slug is
obtained to append to the upload_to directory. Are you suggesting I
should just add the ImageField to the WebProject class? I don't want
to have a fixed number of ImageFields for WebProject, if there's a way
to do that without using another class that would work. Can I access
the save method of ScreenShot from WebProject? Should I just add
another slug field to ScreenShot?

class ScreenShotInline(admin.StackedInline):
model = ScreenShot
extra = 3

class WebProjectAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
prepopulated_fields = {'slug': ('title',)}
inlines = [ScreenShotInline]

Accessing model instance on pre_save signal

[neridaj]

Hello,

I'm trying to change the upload_to attribute of an ImageField so that
it is in the format "web_projects/year/slug/". The problem I am having
is that the ForeignKey model is getting saved before the related
ScreenShot model is able to call it's save method to change upload_to.
I'm trying to use a pre_save signal to reverse the order of saving but
I'm not sure how to access the current instance of the ScreenShot
model to call it's save method. Thanks for any suggestions.


class ScreenShot(models.Model):
project = models.ForeignKey(WebProject)
image = models.ImageField(upload_to="web_projects/%Y/")
page_title = models.CharField(max_length=250, help_text="Maximum 250
characters.")

def __unicode__(self):
return self.page_title

def save(self):
self.image.upload_to="web_projects/%Y/"+self.project.slug
super(ScreenShot, self).save()


def change_upload_to(sender, **kwargs):
s = ScreenShot() # not sure how to access current instance
s.save()

pre_save.connect(change_upload_to, sender=WebProject)

url import causing strange errors

[neridaj]

I've noticed that sometimes errors in my url conf will cause strange
unrelated errors that have sent me down paths that don't need to be
followed because it's a simple typo. I can't seem to find it here but
maybe I need another set of eyes on it.

(r'^projects/', include('projects.urls.projects')),

# projects/urls/projects.py

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from projects.models import Project

project_info_dict = {
'queryset': Project.objects.all(),
}

urlpatterns = patterns('django.views.generic.list_detail',
(r'^$', 'object_list', project_info_dict),
(r'^(?P[-\w]+)/$', 'object_detail', project_info_dict),
)


Thanks,

J

passing vars to filters?

[neridaj]

Is it possible to pass vars to filters rather than hard coding the
field name, something like this:

def search(request):
query = request.GET.get('q', '')
bits = request.GET.get('models', '').partition('.')
model_name = bits[0]
field_name = bits[2]
model_type = ContentType.objects.get(app_label="blog",
model=model_name)
model_class = model_type.model_class()
results = []
if query:
results = model_class.objects.filter
(field_name__icontains=query)
return render_to_response('search/search.html',
{ 'query': query, 'results':
results })

casting unicode to model

[neridaj]

Hello,

I have a select menu which I would like to use as a model selector in
a view but I keep getting 'unicode' object has no attribute 'objects'
because I need to cast this to type Model or something similar. How do
I go about doing that.

Thanks,

problems accessing markdown comments

[neridaj]

I can't figure out why my comment vars aren't available in my
template. I'm using django.contrib.markup and when I try to preview
the comments nothing is displayed, however, the comment var is
available in {{ comment|linebreaks }} but not in
{{ comment.submit_date|date:"F j, Y" }}, {{ comment.person_name }} or
{{ comment.comment|markdown:"safe" }}. Does anyone see what I'm doing
wrong?

code for preview.html:

 {% load comments %}
  
{% if next %}
{% endif %}
{% if form.errors %}
{% blocktrans count form.errors|length as counter %}Please
correct the error below{% plural %}Please correct the errors below{%
endblocktrans %}
{% else %}
{% trans "Preview your comment" %}
  {{ comment|linebreaks }}
{% load markup %}
Post a comment
Here's how your comment will look:
On {{ comment.submit_date|date:"F j, Y" }},
{{ comment.person_name }} said:
{{ comment.comment|markdown:"safe" }}

Thanks,

J

django-tagging causing str error

[neridaj]

I'm using django-tagging and I think it's causing an error when I try
to access the admin page. If I comment out the urls that reference
django-tagging views the error goes away.

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from blog.models import Entry, Link
from tagging.models import Tag

urlpatterns = patterns(''
(r'^$', 'django.views.generic.list_detail.object_list',
{ 'queryset': Tag.objects.all() }),
(r'^entries/(?P[-\w]+)/$',
'tagging.views.tagged_object_list', { 'queryset_or_model': Entry,
'template_name': 'blog/entries_by_tag.html' }),
(r'^links/(?P[-\w]+)/$', 'tagging.views.tagged_object_list',
{ 'queryset_or_model': Link, 'template_name': 'blog/
links_by_tag.html' }),
)

Thanks for any suggestions,

Jason

Re: admin.site.register() - help

it looks like the admin.AdminModel object is causing the error in this
inline definition

class PageAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = [
KeywordInline,
]

admin.site.register(PageAdmin)

'MediaDefiningClass' object is not iterable

when I comment that out the blog.Categories class is available in the
admin.

I'm working on a standalone app and when I try to add it to the admin
index it does not show up using:

from django.contrib import admin
from blog.models import Category

admin.site.register(Category)

Using generic relations as an inline - not working

[neridaj]

I'm trying to add some model fields to another model for admin editing
and can't seem to get it to work i.e., model doesn't show up in admin,
inline or otherwise.

project/app/admin.py

from project.app.models import SearchKeyword
from django.contrib.flatpages.models import FlatPage
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.contenttypes import generic

class KeywordInline(generic.GenericStackedInline):
model = SearchKeyword

class PageAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
inlines = [
KeywordInline,
]

admin.site.register(PageAdmin)



project/app/models.py

from django.db import models
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.flatpages.models import FlatPage

class SearchKeyword(models.Model):
keyword = models.CharField(max_length=50)
page = models.ForeignKey(FlatPage)

flatpages not finding site_media

[neridaj]

I'm trying to use some flatpages for static content and I don''t
understand why they keep failing to load media files. I have my
template_dirs defined, media_root and media_url - when used in
template does not resolve to media_root i.e., template contains:



results in:

Failed to load source for: http://127.0.0.1:8000/about/css/base.css

MEDIA_ROOT = '/Users/neridaj/django-templates/neridaj/'
MEDIA_URL = '/site_media/'
TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
'/Users/neridaj/django-templates/neridaj/'
)

The default template renders but without any of the css.

Thanks,

tiny_mce TypeError

[neridaj]

Hello,

I'm just following "Practical Django Projects" and was curious if
anyone else was able to fix a TypeError when trying to add tiny_mce to
the admin for flatpages, or is this something buried in the
tiny_mce.js file?

(r'^tiny_mce/(?P.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{ 'dcument_root': '/Users/username/src/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce' }),




tinyMCE.init({
mode: "textareas",
theme: "simple"
});

Re: overriding save()

[neridaj]

when I do this it just creates a unix executable file of the same name
selected from the drop down menu of users, i.e., if a user named
testuser24 is selected from the user menu and there is a folder named
testuser24 a unix executable is created named testuser24_. Does this
have something to do with the instance parameter?

class Listing(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
order = models.ForeignKey('Order')

def overwrite_upload_to(self, name):
user_dir_path = os.path.join('listings', self.user.username)
return user_dir_path

zipfile = models.FileField(upload_to=overwrite_upload_to)

Re: building directory path with user table

I've revised my code but files are still getting uploaded to the

self.zipfile.url=user_dir_path

def save(self, force_insert=False, force_update=False):

Re: building directory path with user table

[neridaj]

I'm new to django and not sure how to do this, is this remotely close?

class Listing(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User, unique=True)
zipfile = models.FileField(upload_to='listings')
name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
order = models.ForeignKey('Order')

def save(self, user=user):
user_dir_path = os.path.join(settings.MEDIA_ROOT, 'listings',
user)
zipfile.upload_to=user_dir_path

def __unicode__(self):
return self.name

Re: creating user directories upon account activation

[neridaj]

for some reason the function is returning false. This worked fine on
Dreamhost but when I run this using the django server with the dummy
send mail it returns false. The activation code is in the database so
I don't understand why it would return false, here is the output of
the trace:

Re: creating user directories upon account activation

[neridaj]

yeah, from the front end everything looks as though it's working, but
when I log on to the admin site the user is saved but not activated
and the user folder is never created. I'm using django's dummy send
mail and pasting the generated activation key into the address bar,
which displays "account activated" when entered but the active
checkbox is not checked when I log into the admin and view the user.

moved os import to the top and got rid of try except, with no change.

I still don't get any errors or directories generated from this code,
any ideas?

if SHA1_RE.search(activation_key):
try:

except self.model.DoesNotExist:
return False
if not profile.activation_key_expired():
try:
import os
media_root = dzopastudio.settings.MEDIA_ROOT
user_directory_path = os.path.join(media_root,
'listings',  'neridaj')
os.mkdir(user_directory_path)
except:
print "directory could not be created."
user = profile.user
user.is_active = True
user.save()
profile.activation_key = self.model.ACTIVATED
profile.save()
return user
return False

if not profile.activation_key_expired():
