TemplateSyntaxError: <unprintable TemplateSyntaxError object>

[oakmad]

Hi All,
I'm sure this is something silly I am doing, I see reports of it
from searching but couldn't find a fix. I have downloaded the helper
and am transferring one of my existing Django apps into it. I've
boiled this down into a simple hello world type app in an effort to
get past it but am consistently getting the same error no mater what,
any help MUCH appreciated. Essentially no matter what I do when I hit
my /invite url I get a TemplateSyntaxError: <unprintable
TemplateSyntaxError object> error even when I do not include a
template. Code and trace are below.

Thanks

Adam

urls.py:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *

urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^$','EoF.invite.views.index'), #Catch all, show the home page,
)

views.py:
from django.http import HttpResponse

def index(request):
return HttpResponse("Hello, world. You're at the poll index.")

Here is the stack trace:

OK I found the solution to this by commenting out the code in the
django/template/debug.py

Its a trap for your players essentially, in my existing django
application one added the application to the site in settings with
'mysite.application' e.g. 'mysite.polls'. For this project it actually
is just 'application' or 'polls'. The using page clearly shows just
adding polls but old habits die hard I guess.

Hope this might help someone else some day.

Thanks

Hi Adam,

I am getting this error.
<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: cannot import name DebugLexer
args = ('cannot import name DebugLexer',)
message = 'cannot import name DebugLexer'

Please tell me what might be wrong in my case.

Thanks
Rahul
