Error

[pranjal]

I had an error using django.Versions : Django 1.1.1, Python 2.6.4
In the views file when I passed the argument as a string there is an
error
Error: 'str' object not callable.

This shouts : 'str' object not callable
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^first/$','firstsite'),

This works fine :

urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^first/$',firstsite),

Hi,

First argument in ``patterns`` factory method is like the starting point
for all views that should be called. Moreover, you may pass function view
as a callable object or as a string but in this case your starting point
has to be hooked first.

So, if for instance, your view method 'firstsite' is in module 'mysite.views'
you have to pass full module-path here ('mysite.views.firstsite') or hook 'mysite.views'
as starting point (first argument of patterns method). Like that:

> urlpatterns = patterns('mysite.views',

> (r'^first/$','firstsite'),

or if you don't want to specify starting point:

> urlpatterns = patterns('',
> (r'^first/$','mysite.views.firstsite'),

Hope it helps
