Adding the trailing slash to /mysite/ resulted in getting 404s on all
views. Read over Apache's docs
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_alias.html#alias
and it says something about the URL not being aliased if you add the
trailing /. I don't quite fully understand it.
However, removing 'mysite' and leaving just the / has fixed the
response/redirect problem. The index generic view is now at
http://127.0.0.1/polls/ and all the rest follows as instructed in the
tutorial.
I'm still very puzzled by not being able to use '/mysite'. I agree
with you that somewhere '/mysite' is being stripped or just not being
accessed at all. My guess is somewhere in the generic views and/or
how they are set up in the urlconfs. It seems because the vote view
isn't a generic view, it's unable to redirect to a generic view.
Feels like something is missing. Does that make any sense?
