hello, thanks much for those articles.
Even if they repeat parts of django tutorial, they are really valuable.

I was recently struggling with ajax form validation under pinax, that could be a good next one to write :)

Hi,
I’m trying to follow your tutorial but something goes wrong:

marco@arrakis:~/Projects/exploring_pinax$ ls
apps deploy __init__.py locale manage.py media settings.py templates tests urls.py
marco@arrakis:~/Projects/exploring_pinax$ python manage.py syncdb
Error: Can’t find the file ‘settings.py’ in the directory containing ‘manage.py’. It appears you’ve customized things.
You’ll have to run django-admin.py, passing it your settings module.
(If the file settings.py does indeed exist, it’s causing an ImportError somehow.)

Any tip on what I’m missing?

Lee: Yes, the idea is to create a new file named “local_settings.py”. At least on my system (VIM 7.1) that command does this. Feel free to use any other editor, of course.

Should
“$ cd myproject/
$ vi local_settings.py”

$ cd myproject/
$ vi settings.py
?

or does vi create a file by that name if it doesn’t exist?
