Actually, I was the guy [some might say fool] that initially reported the problem. (Thanks to MT for setting me straight, sorry for impacting his valued time) It seems, the problem _can_ be in how PIL is installed into the site-packages directory. The alternative is that your environment (i.e. sys.path) does not contain the correct path to the correct python site-packages directory. I have multiple python installations on my system and not all packages are in each install. In my main Python, I have a PIL directory and a PIL.pth that points to the directory - it wasn't set up that way in the Python I was using with the Django install. I know it isn't a solution, but I hope it gives you a starting point/next step in solving the root problem. >> >> Does anyone know how to fix this?
