I've (unfortunatly) found the cause of the problem, at first python through MySQLdb wasn't hooking up with the database.
Just as a test I installed SQLite, which was a chore and a half because of Tcl errors, anyways I installed SQLite synced the db and then went to try the admin page again. This time I got "The Dreaded Segmentation Fault" http://www.dscpl.com.au/articles/modpython-006.html and figured out that my apache is using expat_1.95.5 and python is using (1, 95, 8) so... "the version of the "expat" library used by Apache should be updated to be the same version as that embedded within the "pyexpat" module" has anyone done this, how hard is it? I'm running Plesk on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and it's just been one problem after another getting Django installed (if you have the same set up do not use mod_python 3.2.8, find 3.1.4 instead). That said I was a unix newbie when I started and now can debug problems myself so it wasn't a complete waste of time. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
