#5716: Running the tests on Debian ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Owner: nobody Status: new | Component: Documentation Version: SVN | Keywords: Debian tests runtests.py Stage: Unreviewed | Has_patch: 0 ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ I suggest adding this somewhere in http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/contributing/. This belongs with the "Running the unit tests" Perhaps have a separate section for distribution specific information? An alternative would be some wiki page, but I'm not sure where.
****************************************************************************************** To run the Django tests on Debian, since Debian does not currently have the tests installed, it is necessary to do the following. Install some version (I used 0.96+svn6373-1), which is the most recent packaged version available at time writing apt-get source python-django=0.96+svn6373-1 cd python-django-0.96+svn6373/tests/ python runtests.py --settings=django.conf.project_template.settings If is simplest to use sqlite3 for the database. In that case, it is necessary to edit /usr/share/python-support/python- django/django/conf/project_template/settings.py and add DATABASE_ENGINE = 'sqlite3' and also install python-pysqlite2. Faheem. -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5716> Django Code <http://code.djangoproject.com/> The web framework for perfectionists with deadlines --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
