Hi,
After moving and updating from a ReviewBoard SVN installation to a rb-site
installation, the site still used bad paths for htdocs/media and alike. I
wanted to fix those in "Home<http://lisette.euresys.com/admin/db/> >
Siteconfig<http://lisette.euresys.com/admin/db/siteconfig/> > Site
configurations<http://lisette.euresys.com/admin/db/siteconfig/siteconfiguration/>
>" in the admin interface of django. Unfortunately, after editing those
ReviewBoard fails miserably with this error:
2009-01-02 02:05:54,986 - WARNING - JSONField decode error. Expected dictionary,
got string for input '"{u'mail_host_password': u'', u'cache_backend': u'locmem:
//',
*** CROPPED FOR BRIEVITY AND SECURITY REASONS ***
u'site_admin_name': u'Example Joe'}"'
After that, the only way to get ReviewBoard running again is to use a backup
copy of the database. The database uses SQLite. The versions used are:
ReviewBoard-0.9.dev_20081230-py2.4.egg
Djblets-0.4.dev_20081230-py2.4.egg
Django-1.0.2_final-py2.4.egg
django_evolution-0.0.0-py2.4.egg
The error is raised in djblets/utils/fields.py. A comment says:
# XXX We need to investigate why this is happening once we have
# a solid repro case.
Saving a change in the Django admin interface is a reproducible way to get the
error. I tried several times. Unfortunately, I dont't know Django and Djblets
well enough to fix this. (And my colleages don't like it when I break the DB :)
)
Happy new year,
Francois Beerten.
