Comment:
I think there is a misunderstanding about what {{{i18n_patterns()}}} does.
I have added the following to my root URL conf
{{{
urlpatterns += i18n_patterns(
url(r'^about/$', about, name='about')
)
}}}
and set {{{LANGUAGE_CODE}}} to {{{'en'}}} in {{{settings.py}}}.
When I try
{{{
curl -vs http://127.0.0.1:8000/en/about/ >/dev/null
}}}
then I get
{{{
[...]
< HTTP/1.0 200 OK
[...]
}}}
But, when I try
{{{
curl -vs http://127.0.0.1:8000/about/ >/dev/null
}}}
then I get
{{{
[...]
< HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found
[...]
}}}
As you can see, no redirect happens.
If I understand your report correctly, then you seem to have expected that
the URL missing the language prefix (i.e.
{{{http://127.0.0.1:8000/about/}}}) would have been auto-redirected to the
prefixed URL (i.e. {{{http://127.0.0.1:8000/en/about/}}}). But that's not
what {{{i18n_patterns()}}} does.
All that {{{i18n_patterns()}}} does, is that it makes sure that URLs
prefixed with the language prefix matching the user's Accept-Language
header open the corresponding view. I have checked the code (there's
nothing there that redirects) and the documentation (only one section,
"The set_language redirect view", mentions redirects).
If I have misunderstood your problem, then please reopen this report
explaining your problem in more detail, e.g. by providing a small example
project demonstrating the problem. Also provide some URLs demonstrating
your expectations and what actually happens.
