Hi, I have written a small Django App, that executes an interactive program based on user input and returns the output as the result. But for some reason, the subprocess hangs. On verification of the logs I found that a place where a '\n' has to be given as repsonse to a challenge, the response seems to have never been made. Interesting...

Python 2.5, Django 1.2.1, most recent haystack, most recent whoosh This is my first delve into Django-Haystack. I was following the "Getting Started" guide from Haystack and everything seemed to be going along fine, until I went to build the index.
