I've built a Django site that will live at the root when it's live. Right now it's functioning perfectly at the IP address. For testing purposes, the client has pointed a proxy url at it, but the url has /folder/path in it, so none of the URL patterns match. I put (/folder/path)? into all the url patterns so they now respond, but all of ...

Everything works fine for a while, and then the URL tag and reverse() functionality stops working. Instead of returning the expected URL, they return "". We haven't noticed anything in Apache's ...

I have a django app that is mostly done, and the URLs work perfectly when I run it with the manage.py runserver command. However, I've recently tried to get it running via lighttpd, and many links have stopped working. For example: http://mysite.com/races/32 should work, but instead throws this error message. Page not found (404) Reque...

Good morning everyone, Introduction I Got a question about localeURL usage. Everything works great for me with url like this : http://www.mysite.com/ If I type http://www.mysite.com/ in adress bar, it turns correctly in http://www.mysite.com/en/ for example.

I've gotten this far: previous = Item.objects.filter(date_added...
Hello, I'm trying to pass a 'string' argument to a view with a url. The urls.py goes ('^add/(?P<string>\w+)', add ), I'm having problems with strings including punctuation, newlines, spaces and so on. I think I have to change the \w+ into something else. Basically the string will be something copied by the user from a text of his cho...
