hi, I have an old site running on revision 2486 - had not touched it for years and since it wasnt broken nor needed new features, I did not upgrade it. A new model was required, so I added it, but it was not appearing in sqlall statement. The application is called 'web' and under the directory 'web' there are 2 files 'models.py' and 'views.py'. The new model was called 'Affiliation', and the site started barfing saying 'cannot import affiliations'. I then noticed that views.py had a statement:
from myapp.web.models.web import * there is a directory called myapp.web.models, but that only held an __init__.py file which was empty. In those days django required for models in an app called web, to have a directory like web/models/web.py and /web/views/web.py. Apparently some years back I had changed this to the current directory structure as web/views.py and web/models.py. But I could not understand how the site was working until I saw on the production server a file called ~/models/web.pyc. The site had been using this all these years which is why my new model was not noticed. I restored the old directory structure - the site load fine now. But - in admin, the only things that show up are are auth and core - no sign of 'web'. Any clues (I know I should not expect people to help out on such old stuff, but if there *are* any oldtimers with long memories ...) -- regards KG http://lawgon.livejournal.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
