from:"Andreas Ka"

my mysite/templates/admin/base_site.html is ignored (tutorial unclear?)

2014-11-16 Thread Andreas Ka

I am working through https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial02
so far all went fine - but now *templates changes just don't work.*



I think there must be a flaw in that tutorial, something missing,
or something different in django 1.7.1 ?
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial02/#customize-the-admin-look-and-feel


my versions:

python -c "import django; print(django.get_version())"
1.7.1

python --version
Python 2.7.3



*SYMPTOM:*

my changes in
mysite/templates/admin/base_site.html
are simply ignored.



These are my files:

mysite# tree
.
├── db.sqlite3
├── manage.py
├── mysite
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── settings.py
│   ├── urls.py
│   └── wsgi.py
├── polls
│   ├── admin.py
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── migrations
│   │   ├── 0001_initial.py
│   │   └── __init__.py
│   ├── models.py
│   ├── tests.py
│   └── views.py
└── templates
└── admin
└── base_site.html



mysite/settings.py:

TEMPLATE_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')]


*Whatever I do, the page*
*http://myserver:8000/admin/polls/question/
*
*still keeps the old title 'Django administration'*


I want to understand how templates work, because I need them for my real
project.

Thanks a lot!

thanks for your answer.

yes, I just tried that. Same result.
By now, I have understood much more about the templates.
But still, for the admin pages
mysite/templates/admin/base_site.html
doesn't work yet.



I have actually found more errors in the tutorial:


https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial06/#adding-a-background-image
didn't work until I put a  tag into  polls/templates/polls/index.html



https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial05/#testing-our-new-view
these tests all come up with one or the other assertion error

The tutorial did not create any view.py for the admin pages



See

We copied from the Django source files these two into:

Re: problem with runserver

2014-11-17 Thread Andreas Ka

Good News (for me): I got that sorted.

I had the exact same problems today, with a fresh install of
Java8+eclipse4.4+Anaconda(updated)+django1.7,
and it took me hours ...

SYMPTOM:
from Eclipse ... New PyDev project ... Django ...
I could just not persuade the thing
*to execute any django-admin routines, nor start the server.*
the error message always was something like:

*Could not import settings 'mysite.settings' (Is it on sys.path?): No
module named mysite.settings*
And something about a DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable.


Nowhere, e.g. in https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/howto/windows/ was
anything mentioned.

I am not 100% sure what it was in the end
(perhaps the django-admin.exe instead of django-admin.py ?) ,
but when I forgot about Eclipse&PyDev, and went to the commandline, and
executed these commands:

django-admin.exe startproject dummy
cd dummy
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
Ctrl-C

I could suddenly create proper projects,
and start the server in Eclipse/pyDev

And it continues to work, even after:
rmdir /S dummy


Hope that helps somehow?

Re: my mysite/templates/admin/base_site.html is ignored (tutorial unclear?)

2014-11-21 Thread Andreas Ka

I don't know.
How to test that?



The things I have done were these:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/intro/tutorial02/#customizing-your-project-s-templates

mkdir templates
mkdir templates/admin
cp
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/base_site.html
templates/admin/

ls -l templates/admin/base_site.html
-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 338 Nov 21 18:50 templates/admin/base_site.html
(and www-data is member of that group)

nano templates/admin/base_site.html   -> changed it to what I want to see
nano mysite/settings.py  -->   TEMPLATE_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR,
'templates')]

restarted the server.

Re: my mysite/templates/admin/base_site.html is ignored (tutorial unclear?)

2014-11-22 Thread Andreas Ka

Thanks for your help.

I really think there is something wrong with that part of the tutorial. A
small thing, but wrong.


> Check your settings file,
> are there two TEMPLATE_DIRS variables defined?

Nope.


This is where I placed it:

...
import os
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))
TEMPLATE_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates')]
...


just tried this:

import mysite.settings as settings
print settings.TEMPLATE_DIRS
['D:\\Programming\\eclipse\\mysite\\templates']

so no: not empty.


Why is my file templates/admin/base_site.html never called
when I open http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ or
http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/polls/  ?


Thanks.
