Cal,You are contributing a lot to the django users group, but this response isnt in the best spirit of the group.Yes, the op could work out from the traceback what the error was, but we were all beginners once. If you compare this post to the how to post FAQ its not too bad - at least there's a traceback.Telling someone they need to learn more python isn't helpful - tell them that theres a setting missing and how the traceback makes that clear.
looks like we need to add a section on how to answer questions also.
