Maybe you dont have the settings.py filled out correctly? The starting copy is in askbot/setup_templates or you can use "startforum" script that installs with askbot. I think what is missing is the askbot's template context processor, which injects that settings variable into the templates.

I downloaded a new version 0.6.41,and the problem has gone.But i found that there wasn't a whole database dump file(mysql),and i used "manage.py syncdb" script couldn't sync all tables; I hope there is a whole database dump file in the next version.

Hey it's great that you've sorted this out. Now in addition to syncdb please run "python manage.py migrate" that will complete the database creation. It is actually described in the manual. There is a link "install/docs" above in the header. http://askbot.org/doc/index.html

I had the issue. The problem was I was missing the askbot context processor. Add this to your settings.py:

'askbot.user_messages.context_processors.user_messages', #must be before auth

I'm running askbot.noarch 0-.7.49-1.el6 (installed via yum on CentOS 6.5), my settings.py already has the entry mentioned, but I'm still getting the UndefinedError: 'settings' is undefined when trying to post a question to my site. Any thoughts? Is it correct that this context processor should be defined under the TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS?
