It may be the way you are running the program from NB. There are 2 buttons, Run Main Project and Debug Main Project. Make sure you are using the second. It should automatically break on the very first line of code (at least it did in 6.5), where you need to hit continue to actually run the project. Personally I found that particular feature an annoyance and a blessing. An annoyance because you always have to click 2 buttons to really start the debug process, a blessing in that when I first started with both Django and Python were new to me and it helped me get my head around how the entire process got off the ground. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
