2011-10-06 16:14:25 -0500 marked best answer Django error: VariableDoesNotExist: Failed lookup for key [request] in u'[{}]'

This could be caused by several things:

  • models out of date - run python manage.py syncdb and python manage.py migrate
  • missing 'django.core.context_processors.request', in the TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS
  • urlpatterns tuple is empty, urls.py - in the django project root.

Askbot provides a sample urls.py in the directory askbot/setup_templates, you can take it there, or run askbot-setup. askbot-setup will make a copy, but will not overwrite an existing file though.

Hi Fitoria, I check the path of TEMPLATE_DIR, but it seems correct.

Maybe this log can help you to find the solution:

Thanks for your reply.

WSGIScriptAlias ​​If set to '/ forum' and ASKBOT_URL to 'forum /' images are served to the URL '/ forum / forum / m / default / media / images /' (eg forum / forum / m / default / media / images / cc-Wiki.png? v = 1) but the URL is written by askbot '/ forum / m / default / media / images'.

If, instead, I set WSGIScriptAlias to '/' and ASKBOT_URL to 'forum /', askbot load properly, but I am no longer able to access my django site through the url http://localhost/django.
