I am a newbie with a problem working with Django-nonrel on Google App Engine.
I created a new app called "helloapp".
1) I have created a view in views.py called hello world:
from django.http import HttpResponse
def hello(request):
return HttpResponse("Hello world")
2) I have then linked to it in the urls.py using:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from helloapp.views import hello
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^hello/$',hello),
)
This works fine locally, but on live I am getting 500 Server error.
In the GAE logs I see that I am getting an import error
ImportError: No module named helloapp.views
This is confusing since, as mentioned, this works fine locally.
Help.
Maybe try this:
from views import hello
Locally your views.py is in a helloapp directory. But when it gets uploaded onto app engine it is placed into a directory with a version number like this, where helloapp.views does not exist:
/base/data/home/apps/helloapp/1.23456789/views.py
