to get my project to recognize my admin.py file. What am I missing?

I'm thinking maybe my urls.py? I'm comparing it to a working app and everything looks the same, though...

(To be clear: Going to my admin site works, but it's the default without any of my models)

Hi there. it's about imagefiles and thumbnails. You can see my code at http://dpaste.org/SOXKM/ - i need to copy file to file_small and file_medium - but how? or any other way how to create thumbnails on save? user should only upload file

thumbtackthief: you're doing admin.autodiscover() in your root urlconf? And your admin.py is in one of your installed apps?

ffreire0403: did you check with grep is there a 'mysettings' reference in some of your files?

it worked =)

ffreire0403: your project structure is not what it should look like if generated with Django 1.4. Generally, the manage.py would be in the same directory which contains your project folder (with urls and settings inside of it)

hey guys thank you. found out something was really wrong with the path.

nkryptic: Oop, that must be it. admin.py is stored in the project directory, which is not included in the installed apps. Should I move admin into the app, or do I somehow include it from the project. (I'm asking both what works best, as well as what is best practice)

thumbtackthief: in the app

Thank you!

Hello, can someone guide me: http://dpaste.org/efCvZ/ i have tried with a formset, but i'm doing something wrong

Tjati: Have you tried this: http://code.google.com/p/django-thumbs/

Does anyone knows if it is possible to set a constant in the apache configuration file and then use that constant in the settings.py file somehow?

Tjati: most any thumb nailing library will do that for you. I like easy thumbs myself. Or you can do it yourself with PIL

tbaxter: i thi9nk i know how to resize the picture, but not how to save it into a ImageField.

jdo_dk: I am on my way. I try it. Thanks.

guys, what exactly does the django_site table/how should I fill it? I've got an error message about a missing pk=1 entry and apprently filling with random solves it.

Anyone: http://dpaste.org/efCvZ/

ffreire0403: it's used if you run more than one site from your django project, which is probably not the case with you

amarsahinovic: thanks. I was just curious about what it was

jdo_dk: Thank you. It works very nice and was very easy to integrate.

Tjati: Your welcome

How could I build an app that would calculate delivery price according to address?

timini: well, how does address affect delivery price?

is it by state, region, what?

I think by country

I guess thats easy then!

:)

hey guys, help Django 1.5 (1.4): "core.post: 'images' has an m2m relation with model <class 'opps.core.models.image.Image'>, which has either not been installed or is abstract." sources: https://github.com/YACOWS/opps/blob/master/opps... and https://github.com/YACOWS/opps/blob/master/opps...

fix guys :D

thanks

someone know a possible bug where if u have a field status in models with (0, 'inactive'), (1, 'active') and define in modelform a field status with ('enabled', 'Enabled'), ('deactivated', 'Deactivated'), validation does not honor choices defined in modelform and instead use choices defined in model?

is anyone here intimately familiar with Django South? I want to find out if it has some kind of locking mechanism to prevent two "migrate" commands from happening simultaneously

Derailed: afaik south dont have it, will need implement something of lock, maybe with tmpfile.

how that issue happened?

chronossc, I'm imagining a deployment (as a debian package) to multiple front-end servers with a migration in it. Imagine the post-install script calls 'migrate'. If there is a lock then there's no problem, but if there isn't you'll have two front-ends trying to migrate the same database at the same time, leading to unhappiness

hm I tested here Derailed. A empty migration with time.sleep(10). On first try to run a second migration in this 10sec interval I got django.db.utils.DatabaseError: (1050, "Table 'ROLLBACK_TEST' already exists")

on second try it works normal

the second try was while the first one was still sleeping?

ya

hmm

weird hehe

so the answer appears to be: I'd better do a lock myself?

ya

use http://pythonhosted.org/lockfile/
