I can't start Django Oscar after installing

[michf...@gmail.com]

I finally installed django oscar and I can run the server, but I don't know how to start building my page. Moreover, I don't know what url would be my home or index, I tried to enter to http://127.0.0.1:8000 and I got the following error:

VariableDoesNotExist at /

Failed lookup for key [basket] in "<WSGIRequest: GET '/'>"

Request Method:	GET

19	</ul>

When I made a new category, I tried to enter to the urld and got the following error:

Page not found (404)

Request Method:	GET
Request URL:	http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/pruebal/

Using the URLconf defined in frobshop.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:

1. ^i18n/
2. ^admin/
3. ^catalogue/
4. ^basket/
   
5.  ^checkout/
6. ^accounts/
7. ^search/
8. ^dashboard/
   
9.  ^offers/
10. ^password-reset/$ [name='password-reset']
11. ^password-reset/done/$ [name='password-reset-done']
12. ^password-reset/confirm/(?P<uidb64>[0-9A-Za-z_\-]+)/(?P<token>.+)/$ [name='password-reset-confirm']
13. ^password-reset/complete/$ [name='password-reset-complete']
14. page-redirect/(?P<page_promotion_id>\d+)/$ [name='page-click']
15. keyword-redirect/(?P<keyword_promotion_id>\d+)/$ [name='keyword-click']
16. ^$ [name='home']

The current path, test/pruebal/, didn't match any of these.

Next, my urls.py and settings.py to understand my problem:

My urls.py:

You are missing Oscar's basket middleware from your MIDDLEWARE setting:

'oscar.apps.basket.middleware.BasketMiddleware',




[data.ana...@gmail.com]

HI Samir, 

I have the basket and it's still not rendering the admin site. 

everything else is fine and functional. 

[SammyJ]

Hi,

I think your oscar templates aren't rendering. Did you make sure you have copied all the templates from core oscar,  all templates would be under your Virtual environment you created, the path should be <virtualenv_name>/lib/python3.6/site-packages/oscar/templates/oscar/,  copy all the folders and files you find here to your local project's templates/ folder then try running 127.0.0.1:8000/ . The page that you would see comes under templates/promotions/home.html.

Good morning and thanks for the reply 

This is the Django admin panel we are talking about right ? Because the dashboard from Oscar is working fine , I’m only not able to use the original Django admin, yesterday I read the Oscar documentation and they’ve created this dashboard in order to be used instead of the admin site. 

That’s why there is not template for this . 

I’m sorting it out slowly. So if you have any suggestion let me know . 

P.s: I’ve got all the templates as you wrote below.

The Django admin should work if you follow the URL config outlined here: https://django-oscar.readthedocs.io/en/releases-1.6/internals/getting_started.html#urls

Oscar does not in any way modify the templates of Django's admin, so my best guess is that you just haven't configured the admin URLs correctly.

[Damjan Stefanovski]

My exact opinion was that as well. 

I’ll do it again if I need to but will make it right . 

Thanks for the support .

Also , 

I’m using Django 2.0 si path instead of url is used. 

Maybe an older Django version is better for Oscar ? 

[SammyJ]

HI,

I am using Django 2.0 too,you can use either path or url, take a look at the latest documentation on the urls here: https://django-oscar.readthedocs.io/en/latest/internals/getting_started.html#urls The code for Django > 2.0 is commented out, you may un comment them and comment the codes above, the ones with url() is for Django<2.0.

[Damjan Stefanovski]

Thanks Sammy 

Thanks exactly what I did by uncomenting the path and # the url 

There is another error I’m getting now as I can’t save the products from the dashboard side and add content to the site a bit. 

Not an easy task with manipulating Oscar to the needs and purposes and modifications for my site .
