Thanks, that got it to work.

from django.core.mail.backends.base import BaseEmailBackend is new to 1.2. Also after switching to 1.2 I get the following error: ImproperlyConfigured: Error importing middleware askbot.middleware.view_log: "No module named coffin.template" Any ideas?

That snippet requires Django 1.2 or did you mean it should work fine as long as I switch to django 1.2?

I am setting up an askbot instance and would like to know if its possible to set up askbot with either Django 1.2.x or use an email backend other than SMTP?

I did follow instructions this is what is in my python path: /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/askbot-0.6.17-py2.4.egg /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django_robots-0.8.0-py2.4.egg /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django_threaded_multihost-1.4_0-py2.4.egg /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django_keyedcache-1.4_1-py2.4.egg /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Django-1.1.2-py2.4.egg But I cannot import

I did that, but now the problem is that the installation of askbot through the github version added it to the site-packages and added it to python path, but python still can't import it. Do you have any ideas what might cause this? I am a bit new to hardcare Python.

oops didn't mean for this to be an answer

I am trying from the github version, now I am getting the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/startforum", line 7, in ? sys.exit( File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 318, in load_entry_point return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 2221, in load_entry_point return ep.load() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 1954, in load entry = __import__(self.module_name, globals(),globals(), ['__name__']) ImportError: No module named askbot.deployment

I can't use postgresql, but I can try the version in github, I was previously using the stable release. python 2.6 might not be an option either since I have limited access to the machine.

I am trying to install askbot, but when I run the command python manage.py syncdb, I get the following error.
