So after normalising the database, it is often found that repeating a field, or adding a field that can be calculated from existing fields in a table speeds up things enormously without significantly compromising database integrity. So we do it. It may not be necessary in a smaller database, but may be needed in a bigger one. -- regards KG http://lawgon.livejournal.com --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

why not load the index first?

I'm assuming you mean the content index > (/dev/genindex/), but maybe you mean something else. ok, the problem is simple: in the old days it was dead easy to find relevant parts of the docs. Now it is not. I thought it was only me, but I have seen enough comments on IRC to find that it is general. The main document page for before restructuring was good. Now the only way to find anything is through google search. So my request is very simple: if we cannot go back to the old structure, at least put google search and the module/global index as the *first* items on the left hand side of the page so we can go there. After a gap, I am coding a new django site, and decided to do it from scratch with no copy/paste and checking the docs. It is proving difficult. Please do not think I am criticising the docs - I am not.

problem with admin in a .90 site
hi, I have an old site running on revision 2486 - had not touched it for years and since it wasnt broken nor needed new features, I did not upgrade it. A new model was required, so I added it, but it was not appearing in sqlall statement. The application is called 'web' and under the directory 'web' there are 2 files 'models.py' and 'views.py'. The new model was called 'Affiliation', and the site started barfing saying 'cannot import affiliations'. I then noticed that views.py had a statement: from myapp.web.models.web import * there is a directory called myapp.web.models, but that only held an __init__.py file which was empty. In those days django required for models in an app called web, to have a directory like web/models/web.py and /web/views/web.py. Apparently some years back I had changed this to the current directory structure as web/views.py and web/models.py. But I could not understand how the site was working until I saw on the production server a file called ~/models/web.pyc. The site had been using this all these years which is why my new model was not noticed. I restored the old directory structure - the site load fine now. But - in admin, the only things that show up are are auth and core - no sign of 'web'. Any clues (I know I should not expect people to help out on such old stuff, but if there *are* any oldtimers with long memories ...) -- regards KG http://lawgon.livejournal.com --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

admin is not allowing users to see the main page
hi, I have a django site which has been working well, with an app name 'web' - recently I some changes in the database and now find that all users (including superusers) are blocked from viewing web in the main admin page. They can view and edit other pages under 'web' by typing in the url.

[slightly OT] Web deployment certification
Hi, I work with a Government department with a mandate to spread FOSS/OSS in both formal and non-formal education sector. We are planning to introduce a web deployment certification. A person may be a specialist in say RDBMS or design, but if he is able to deploy his applications (especially open source) - he stands a much better chance of being recruited or getting work. I had proposed testing in a hands on session the ability to: 1. Set up virtual host with apache/nginx/lighty 2. Set up and RDBMS 3. Use a 'P' language for business logic 4. Build a front end CSS/HTML/JS 5. Store the code in a repository 6. Set up a bugtracking system 7. Demonstrate basic knowledge of the HTTP protocol Programming ability per se will not be tested. I am getting a lot of flak saying: 'this is not what industry wants'. I would appreciate any feedback from django-users (we are also, in the next phase, contemplating a django certification). I know this is somewhat OT, but after all it *is* in the cause of promoting Open Source so please forgive me. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

I havent heard of it - although i have a server with about 10 sites and have found one site once or twice mixing with another in admin.

In which case the django user would have only readonly access to the database. So your choices are: 1. django user gets create, drop rights on tables and indexes. select, insert, update and delete. Alter table rights dont arise until some form of schema evolution makes it's way into trunk as django currently cannot manipulate individual columns in tables 2. do the db structure manually outside django and give django rights only over the data - select, insert, update, delete 3. do even data manipulation outside allow django user readonly rights. There are rigid frameworks around which mandate that *all* actions *must* be done through the framework, otherwise everything gets borked. Django is much more flexible here. So, for example, django doesnt do check contraints - but that doesnt mean that a django app cannot have check constraints. All it means that you have to set these up in the database manually and maybe write some stuff in the views to catch the db errors.

One thing people forget is that Django is a framework made up of python, sql, html, css and javascript. It simplifies and makes tasks easier, but in the last analysis, it is still python, sql, html, css and javascript. One of the givens in sql is the necessity of altering database structure after going into production. So far, django devels have not found a safe and sure way of automating the alteration made within a table - although there are several projects to implement schema evolution going. So in this case you do what you would anyway - fall back on sql and do it 'the hard way'. When you make a change within a model, run sqlall before the change, run sqlall after the change, compare the two, create a script to change the table and manually run that. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

It is a very small site in the sense that it is used for administering an organisation, so would have just 2-3 users at a time, mainly doing admin stuff. The only load is when pdf reports are being generated. Leaving apache untweaked, the RAM usage shoots up - well over the 40 MB limit. I set MaxRequestsPerChild to 3. Even then, the limit gets crossed pretty fast. The question is: do I go on trying to tweak Apache? Or do I go in for more RAM? -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Apparently they run this command now and then, and if it shows over 40 MB, you get a notice from them. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Choices cannot be marked for translation?
hi,
when i upgraded to the latest svn head, I found that all the places
in admin that had drop downs for choices were blank. I had always
marked my choices for translation like so:
article_type = (
("NW", _("News")),
("FT",_("Features")),
)
now, this doesnt work - when I remove the _(), then the choices
appear. How do I then mark them for translation?

hi, this is not a bug report, because unicode upgrade is not backwardly compatible. When i did the upgrade, the finnish data in the site had problems rendering.

If you *do* install django from Macports, you have no control over the version you are using.

sqlreset problem - a bug?
hi, was trying sqlreset after a long time. It does not do the drop and create statements in the proper order: say table foo has a foreign key to table bar, then foo must be dropped first and then bar. In creation, bar must be created first and then foo. Otherwise, in both cases the sql fails. But sqlreset is creating it in the wrong order. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

I am not sure exactly what you mean by this. mod_python is the preferred way to go. The only thing is that static content/media will go directly to apache bypassing mod_python. The 'warnings' are only to help you to improve performance.

This applies to sites of even 5-10 hits a day. Note, I am not criticising webfaction - they rock. -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

baffling i18n problem after unicode update
hi,
I have choices like this:
HEALTH_CHOICES = (
('G',_("Good")),
('A',_("Average")),
('P',_("Poor")),
)
my site is english and finnish. These choices are used in several
models. When finnish is on, they get translated in the web interface.
I also generate reports in reportlab. In one report, choices shows up
correctly if the report is in english. In finnish, the choice is
translated and prints if it is "Average" or "Poor" - but if the
choice is "Good", it does not appear in the report - it is blank. I
cant even begin to think how to solve this - it was ok before
updating to unicode. In all other reports with reportlab, "Good" gets
translated and shows up. Any ideas?

Re: baffling i18n problem after unicode update
there is only one .po file - Good, Poor and Average are all there.
Further, all three were working for the past year, only on update to
the unicode branch that this happened. I thought maybe Good was
marked as Fuzzy, but it is not - and anyway it translates fine in
other pdf reports. Not this particular one. I *know* there has to be
some very simple explanation for this - but cant for the life of me
find what it is.
