Re: Django newbie with issues

[Morrti]

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.
Thanks for the help/advice.  

Thanx,
Tim

force_text did not exist in 1.1, but it exists in current master. Getting
an error referring to it rather implies that you're running a mutant
version with some leftover py/pyc files form when you were running current
master (which appears to be what you were running for the first traceback
posted -- the " __init__() keywords must be strings" error there is what
you get today on master if you run with Python earlier than 2.6.5).

I'd start over with a completely new install, in a completely new directory
tree. (I also would not include "django-trunk" in the name of that tree, if
it was actually intended to hold 1.1.something.)

Re: Django newbie with issues

[Morrti]

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.

Thanx,
Tim

Why is this? If you're new to Django you should dive in at the latest
version.

If your company has existing projects that are dependent on 1.1, then
why not create a virtualenv with Django 1.4 on it so you can play around
getting to know Django. Then you can go back to 1.1 with some
confidence.

I suspect you'll get more support using a more recent version.

Re: Django newbie with issues

[Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd]]

May I ask the reason you cannot upgrade to 1.4???

Sticking to 1.1 is usually only done if you have an existing code base that
absolutely requires 1.1.

You really need to upgrade :/

Re: Django newbie with issues

[Morrti]

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.

Thanx,

Please take the advice and use 1.4.1. And on the Mac I strongly

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.

Re: Django newbie with issues

[Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd]]

Ouch, 1.1 is very old indeed.

I have seen compatibility issues before when running django/py apps on a
mac, but can't say I've ever ran into this before.

Could you upgrade to the latest (1.4.1) and see if you still experience the
same issue?

Django newbie with issues

[Morrti]

Hi,

I'm a total newbie to Django and I'm trying to follow the build your first 
app tutorial from the site 
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/intro/tutorial01/ but have soon run 
into problems, please see below. This is as a result of running the  python 
manage.py runserver command. 

If anyone can help, I believe I'm running version 1.1 of django, not sure 
what else you may want to know.

Thanx,

python manage.py runserver
Validating models...
