Adam,
There is another setting in settings.py that needs to be updated to allow
for projects that aren't named arches:
APP_ROOT =
os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(inspect.getfile(inspect.currentframe(
is going to result in a path that includes the name of my project.
APP_Root is then used in a number of other paths, resulting in a bunch of
404s, because the files are actually located in an arches folder under
ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages.
Rather than copy all the files in the arches folder to a folder with my
project name or renaming the arches folder, how would you recommend
APP_ROOT be defined?
Thanks,
Martha

Since Colin's thread was locked and re-directed, I'm using the same
title to respond to his comment regarding my_project.settings. When we
reached the same point with the same problem, I examined some of the stack
trace. As Colin is doing, I am installing arches on a new machine, not
upgrading a machine with an older version.
It appears that giving your project a name other than arches results in
some invalid settings in some of the py files. For example, settings.py
loads the arches library, but immediately makes calls to modules in the
projectname library, which doesn't exist:
import os
import arches
import inspect
try:
from arches.settings import *
except ImportError:
pass
APP_ROOT =
os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(inspect.getfile(inspect.currentframe(
STATICFILES_DIRS = (os.path.join(APP_ROOT, 'media'),) +
STATICFILES_DIRS
DATATYPE_LOCATIONS.append('hpla.datatypes')
FUNCTION_LOCATIONS.append('hpla.functions')
Similarly, wsgi.py, which is the file that generated the error Colin
mentioned, fails on the following line:
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "hpla.settings"
I experimented with changing hpla to arches in wsgi.py and got further,
but I'm about to scrap everything and re-install the project as arches. I
could go through all of the files in the stack trace and replace all
'hpla.' occurrences with 'arches.', but I think it will be easier for
long-term maintenance to just go with arches. So long as I can call the
production product what I want, I should be fine.
