I am brand new to Django and I'm trying to get up to speed ASAP. I really like it so far. I'm getting an error trying to create a template in the shell.
>>> from django import template >>> t = template.Template('My name is {{ name }}.') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/django/template/__init__.py", line 166, in __init__ if settings.TEMPLATE_DEBUG and origin is None: File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/django/utils/functional.py", line 269, in __getattr__ self._setup() File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/django/conf/__init__.py", line 38, in _setup raise ImportError("Settings cannot be imported, because environment variable %s is undefined." % ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE) ImportError: Settings cannot be imported, because environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is undefined. I am using Ubuntu (Karmic Koala) and I installed from the Package Manager Version 1.1.1. I'm guessing I have some sort of a path problem. Can anyone give me a quick fix/explanation? I'd rather not skip this issue because I imagine it will come back to bite me later. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
