I've been working on my first Django project in PyCharm with few issues. This morning, to update software, I closed the file and restarted the computer. When i opened the file and ran the server again, I received the following error: ImportError: No module named Stentorian Stentorian is the name of the project. I have not been able to find any remedy. I was researching for hours and decided to go back through the Time Machine on the Mac to see if anything changed from previous versions. When doing so, I found a strange inconsistency that may be related to this issue. The project folder/directory is named "stentorian." Some time during the last week, the directory replicated another copy of the folder/directory called "Stentorian" – capitalized – in the same parent directory. While going through Time Machine, some time in the pre-dawn hours, the second folder/directory "Stentorian</pre> DF 2012-05-26T20:03:01 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.django.user/141414 <pre>I have Homework objects that are related to Course objects for a school related Django app. I can access Course and Homework objects but there is one Homework query at the end of this email that bombs and I don't know why. =================================================================== First I'll show a few working queries to show that everything is sane and working.... =================================================================== [&lt;Course: Course object&gt;] [&lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;, &lt;Course: Course object&gt;] [&lt;Homework: Homework object&gt;, &lt;Homework: Homework object&gt;, ... etc.] (truncated by me) [&lt;Homework: Homework object&gt;, &lt;Homework: Homework object&gt;, ... etc.] (truncated by me) ==================================================================== Here is the mystery one that bombs and I don't kno</pre> Chris Seberino 2012-05-26T19:26:45 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.django.user/141412 <pre>I've been working on a Django project, my first, with no issues.

I have strong reasons for needing multiple profile types which I won't go into here. i put example code in the following gist: https://gist.github.com/2792846#comments In short, I have a common profile (CommonProfile which two profiles (SpamProfile and EggsProfile) inherit from. I override the signup form to save data into the derived SpamProfile, but no data is stored in the derived profile table, so all the users end up with CommonProfiles only, which should not be aloud. I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do next to fix this. </pre> James Rivett-Carnac 2012-05-26T08:04:52 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.django.user/141400 <pre> A TemplateSyntaxError error has occurred in my previously functional project and after trying for hours to resolve it, it was determined it might be a cache error and to empty the tmp directory at the root (the template had been working fine for a week and nothing was changed that might have affected it).

I'm working on an existing Django application that required some geolocation abilities, specifically getting a users IP and lat/long and then placing that info on a map marker. GeoIP and the associated libraries appeared to be the best solution for the first step. I installed GeoIP on a Mac using Homebrew. I then manually created a folder in the root directory of my project with the GeoIPv6.data and GeoLiteCity.dat files. After this, I added the path in my settings file: import os DEBUG = True TEMPLATE_DEBUG = DEBUG BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) GEOIP_PATH = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'geoip'), I then opened a command shell for the project and received the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "&lt;console&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt; ImportError: No module named geoip I can't seem to remed</pre> DF 2012-05-24T23:10:50 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.django.user/141364 <pre>Several hours of frustration here and looking to see if anyone has any advice.

The trouble is is that they are sometimes in areas where there is no cell covereage and therefore no data connection. Has anyone else had a similar situation and do you have any pointers into solution approaches or apps I should be looking at? My initial thoughts were ... - Somehow create a standalone django app that is the same as the online one and then have it synchronize when it goes back online. Something ala Google Gears / HTML5. But not done anything like this and I'm not sure how complicated the synchronizing would be and I'm reluctant to roll out django installations on loads of laptops. - Use a non-django app which might be a bit lighter, eg MS Access or some sqlite front end and then have that synchronize. Again, similar issues as above, although. - Have them complete a simple spreadsheet when offline which they can upload to the django app and import the data once they get a data </pre> ALJ 2012-05-24T19:00:31 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.django.user/141343 <pre>Hi! all I make client using suds &amp; call the SOAP webservice &amp; i get the response as pdf string format, but it is not in proper format, i want to convert it into proper format &amp; store it in the pdf file.
