How to run askbot under a subdirectory?

Askbot I installed on a server (CentOS + Apache) with a single IP address. On the same server are running the main site (php) and a Django site (version 1.3). Django Django is served under the subdirectory / (defined by the Directive WSGIScriptAlias / django) I would like to serve in a subdirectory askbot / forum, but even if they define the WSGIScriptAlias / forum url media continue to point to / m, while it should point to / forum / m Can anyone help me?

Solved! There was a line with USE_I18N = False. When I set USE_I18N to True the problem got solved.

Great, thanks I've added a startup check that makes sure that USE_I18N is True, this problem won't show up again.

I have just run the command python manage.py add_missing_subscriptions and I think that there is a typo. I get the error is AttributeError: type object 'User' has no attribute 'object' and infact in the script add_missing_subscriptions there is the command User.object.all() that instead should be User.objects.all()

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.

What do you expect to see at your /django url? I think WSGIScriptAlias "/" and ASKBOT_URL="forum/" should work, but if you need to see something at /django some view must be registered at that url in urls.py. Do you have anything besides a django project at your site (any other application - like a blog or anything else)? Sorry for the delay.

@Fabio, any success so far?

Hi there, yes it should work - in settings.py set ``ASKBOT_URL='somedir/'.

There must be no leading slash in the parameter. This setting was not tested recently, please give your feedback if you have any issues.

evgeny-fadeev 949-824-5842 (US), or email evgeny.fadeev@gmail.com I need more details from you to be able to help.

Evgeny (2011-06-13 19:26:00 -0600) edit

Your problem seems to be related to the webserver deployment, I'd make ASKBOT_URL /forum and WSGI script alias /, but the details may depend on your intentions and an what else you have on the same site.

Evgeny (2011-06-13 19:28:48 -0600) edit

just noticed that using /forum root url breaks two test cases! will fix them tomorrow. for example logo upload does not work.
