get_absolute_url() necessary with ModelForm ?

[Axel Rau]

I’m using a model in 2 apps with different urls.
Subclasing it and overwriting get_absolute_url() did not work,
because it mangled dbtable.
UpdateView does not work with ModelForm w/o get_absolute_url().

Does there any workaround exist?

Thanks, Axel

UpdateView works perfectly fine without `get_absolute_url()`. It does however need a `success_url` attribute, or a `get_success_url()` method, defined on the view itself.

This worked perfectly!
