Your Django version is really outdated. I think you can update using the Update Manager or calling the terminal and typing:
sudo apt-get update This command will resync the packages with the current version on distro repository. Alternatively you can update via python setuptools, using the command: easy_install --upgrade django After this you can try: import django django.VERSION and see if you're on the last stable release. 2010/10/6 Lisa Gandy <lisagand...@gmail.com> > Thanks for the help, > This ended up working.... > (r'^admin/(.*)', admin.site.root) > > Now, when I look at the admin panel, its really funky looking, it > definitely works, but its like its missing a template. > Do yout hink its b/c the version of django on teh server is old? > Its 1.0.4.... > > If thats the problem, what is the easiest way to upgrade django on Ubuntu > 8.10? > > Thanks! > Lisa > > > On Tue, Oct 5, 2010 at 6:34 PM, Sandro Dutra <hexo...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> You have to check if you enable the "admin" application on your >> settings.py. >> >> 2010/10/5 Sithembewena Lloyd Dube <zebr...@gmail.com> >> >> Hey Lisa, >>> >>> Look at this line (supplied by you): >>> >>> >>> # (r'^ccu/', include('ccu.foo.urls')), >>> >>> ^^ the line above is correct. >>> >>> Now, the line that's giving you trouble is: >>> >>> (r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)), >>> >>> ^^ spot the difference? >>> >>> I think you should use quotes around your argument to the include >>> function.
