I think this has to do with '/cms/' being defined in both your domain name and your apache conf's location directive. Since you tell Django the django.root is /cms/, it must add it to build an effectively *absolute* url - that is, one starting at the root of your domain. And since you have this /cms/ in your sites.domain (which fwiw shouldn't be the case - not a valid *domain* name), you end up having this url path portion twice. IOW, you shouldn't have /cms/ in your sites.domain. While we're at it : what's your use case for adding the domain name to the url ? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
