[Solved] collectstatic missing on Linux

2012-01-10 Thread Mike Dewhirst 
Thanks guys - I found the problem. It required the following in 
manage.py ...


import os, sys

if __name__ == "__main__":

SRC_ROOT = 
os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__)).replace('\\','/')

PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.split(SRC_ROOT)[0].replace('\\','/')

sys.path.append(PROJECT_ROOT)
sys.path.append(SRC_ROOT)

... for some reason manage.py doesn't like my Linux setup and needed 
some reassurance.


Cheers

Mike

be my first guess.  If it is, do a manage.py console and try importing
it to make sure that the django environment can see it.

This is why linux is the best os. If anything goes wrong, you can
blame it on linux :)

1) make sure you are really using django1.4a in server (from django
import VERSION). maybe you installed multiple versions of django and
using the wrong one (you might have 1.2.x on system and 1.4a on
virtualenv and might be using the wrong one.)
2) check your settings.py file. You might have windows specific paths
on your settings.py file (PROJECT_ROOT)

I hope that helps.

Make sure the staticfiles app is in your INSTALLED_APPS setting.  That'd be
my first guess.  If it is, do a manage.py console and try importing it to
make sure that the django environment can see it.

collectstatic missing on Linux

2012-01-09 Thread Mike Dewhirst 
The manage.py collectstatic subcommand doesn't exist on my Linux staging 
server but it does exist (and works) on my Win XP development machine. 
I'm using exactly the same settings.py on both machines.


On Linux, in a Python interpreter I can do ...

>>>from django.contrib import staticfiles
>>>

... but when I type

$/usr/bin/python /srv/www/proj/manage.py help

... it returns a list of available subcommands[1] without collectstatic 
in the list.


Win XP 32-bit
Python 2.7
Django 1.4a

Linux 64-bit
Python 2.6
Django 1.4a

The application itself runs under Apache on the Linux staging server if 
I manually copy all the static files to the STATIC_ROOT directory.


Any hints appreciated

Thanks

Mike
