Do you have a stack trace you can DPaste?
The urlresolvers.reverse function throws an exception if *any* of your
URLs anywhere in the project have a bad view and not necessarily the
one you are trying to reverse map. So, check that you don't have any
URL mappings with undefined view functions (or views with syntax
errors).
Since 'satchmo_product' is a named URL mapping, Django should resolve
that to the right Satchmo view directly without going through any
searches.
