Hi nara, This error is normally thrown when the sites app is being used in a django project. I think it can also occur if the sites tables in the database is not properly created during django-admin startproject. Someone else reported that he was able to solve the problem by using a user name without special characters.
This might be difficult to debug since you are using a development version however: 1. Go to the inbuilt django shell and enter these commands: from django.contrib.sites.models import Site >From django.conf import settings x = settings.SITE_ID Site.objects.get(pk=x) You should get the same "site matching query does not exist" error. Now print x and then check the django_site_table in your database. x should be the same as the primary key of what you have in the table. If it isn't, drop the table and syncdb again.
