How do i get to collect static files ? i cant run this project it raises the error

Im running the command python manage.py collectstatic
You have requested to collect static files at the destination
location as specified in your settings:
/static
python manage.py collectstatic
This will overwrite existing files!
Are you sure you want to do this?
Type 'yes' to continue, or 'no' to cancel: yes
the error im gettting;

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, '/static/') should be:
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static/')
The / resets tree and it looks for static dir in the root, i.e. literally: /static where you want to have something like /home/user/project/static
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static/')
STATICFILES_DIRS = ( "/home/mark/Desktop/xls/python-django-exporting-files/static‌​", )
try:
from local_settings import *
except:
pass
STATICFILES_DIRS is a place where you keep your own static files that should be collected with collectstatic. It cannot be the same as STATIC_ROOT.
Your structure with static can be like
DJANGO_PROJECT_DIR
|--> PROJECT_DIR
|----> settings.py
|----> templates
|----> static
|--> static
|--> manage.py
Then the code will be (replace PROJECT_DIR with your project dir name):
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')
STATICFILES_DIRS = ( os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'PROJECT_DIR', 'static‌'), )
try:
from local_settings import *
except:
pass

Django filebrowser configuration error

I cant get past the first step, setting it up.
This is my settings.py of the application:
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/django/ristoturisto/media'
FILEBROWSER_DIRECTORY = ''
STATIC_ROOT = '/home/django/ristoturisto/static'
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
FILEBROWSER_DIRECTORY = MEDIA_ROOT
The folders exist, i copied the name from pwd.
I did collect static, that worked.
But when i do:
python manage.py test filebrowser
I get the follwing error:

Django 1.5 with psycopg2 throw random errors

I faced with some strange problem. When I run single worker for my django application? like this:
python manage.py run_gunicorn -w 1
python manage.py runserver
All requests served correctly, but if start multiple workers like:
python manage.py run_gunicorn -w 10
Django respond with error to (about) half of my requests:

I tried sqlite3 as DB backend for Django and it works fine. Do someone have the same problems with psycopg2?
Django==1.5
gunicorn==0.17.2
psycopg2==2.5

Sorry for disturbing. Problem was not in psycopg/Django/gunicorn. I use Nose for testing purposes:

INSTALLED_APPS = INSTALLED_APPS + ('django_nose',)
TEST_RUNNER = 'django_nose.NoseTestSuiteRunner'
NOSE_ARGS = ['--with-doctest']
when removed this lines, random errors disappear.

django-pipeline and s3boto storage don't seem to work together

I'm trying to use django-pipeline-1.1.27 with s3boto to compress and filter static files, and then upload them to an s3 bucket. If I just use:
PIPELINE_STORAGE = 'pipeline.storage.PipelineFinderStorage'
Then it works and I get a static folder with the nice versioned file that I configured. As soon as I switch to
PIPELINE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage'
I get
Traceback (most recent call last):

which is one of my source files. So why does pipeline no longer want to do the filter/concatenate/compress steps when I switch to s3boto storage?
It may be that I'm doing something. Here is other config in case it helps:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'pipeline',
'storages',
)
STATICFILES_FINDERS = (
'pipeline.finders.PipelineFinder',
'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder',
'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder',
)
STATIC_ROOT = "/some/path/outside/django_project/deploy_static"
STATICFILES_DIRS = () # All statics in this site are in apps
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'pipeline.storage.PipelineStorage'
PIPELINE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage'
PIPELINE = True
PIPELINE_AUTO = True
PIPELINE_VERSION = True
PIPELINE_VERSION_PLACEHOLDER = 'VERSION'
PIPELINE_VERSIONING = 'pipeline.versioning.hash.SHA1Versioning'
PIPELINE_CSS = {
'standard': {
'source_filenames': (
'css/style.css',
...
),
'output_filename': 'css/all-VERSION.css',
'extra_context': {
'media': 'screen,projection',
},
}
}
My site is on Django 1.3.1.
The command I'm running is:
python manage.py synccompress --force
The AWS creds are also in settings, but that's moot because it's not even getting to that point.
UPDATE Added full stack and settings requested in comments
UPDATE At the request of the library author, I tried upgrading to the latest beta. Observations from that so far:
I don't know how to get versioned compressed files now
collectstatic leaves me with the compressed files and the originals
Still getting the same error from django-pipeline when boto storage is configured: it wants to send my source files to s3, but I can't even see where it's staging my assets. Nothing gets placed in STATIC_ROOT.
UPDATE I've created the simplest project that works for finder storage and then breaks with S3Boto. I've pushed it to github, and included a capture of the stacktrace.
https://github.com/estebistec/simple_pipeline
https://raw.github.com/estebistec/simple_pipeline/master/STACKTRACE
I would be ecstatic if I could be told I'm doing some really dumb and this should all just work.

django-pipeline 1.1.x is a bit dumb about how you should use staticfiles, it prefers to have everything in one place.
I suggest you to try django-pipeline 1.2 with latest django-staticfiles or django 1.4.
Use a custom like this :
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'your.app.S3PipelineStorage'
The code looks like this :
from staticfiles.storage import CachedFilesMixin
from pipeline.storage import PipelineMixin
from storages.backends.s3boto import S3BotoStorage
class S3PipelineStorage(PipelineMixin, CachedFilesMixin, S3BotoStorage):
pass
You can find how to fix your application, but there is still a bug with compiled files unless you use version 1.2c1 : https://gist.github.com/1999564

I just experienced this same error on a Django 1.6 project with django-pipeline==1.3.23, and the solution was simply removing the PIPELINE_STORAGE setting.

There is another problem with similar error message that affects earlier and current version (1.5.4) of django-pipeline.
The error message is IOError: File does not exist, and it happens in s3boto.py.open() and packager.pack_stylesheets(). You might hit the problem if you use any of the compiler (Compass, Sass, Less etc). I suspect it would also affect JS compiler, but I have not confirmed.
In a nutshell, the compiler generates output file in the local static storage and the next steps, compress is trying to find the output in s3 storage.
If it affects you, you might want to take a look at https://github.com/cyberdelia/django-pipeline/issues/473. There are two pull-requests (patches), one made by skirsdeda and another made by thomasyip (me). Both might solve your problem. If you would like the compiled (but, pre-compressed) file to be copied to s3 and available to the app, the you would take thomasyip (me)'s patch.
Here is full Traceback for the problem:

Complementing the answers, you could use GZIP as well when compressing:
from django.contrib.staticfiles.storage import CachedFilesMixin
from pipeline.storage import PipelineMixin
from storages.backends.s3boto import S3BotoStorage
class S3PipelineStorage(PipelineMixin, CachedFilesMixin, S3BotoStorage):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.gzip = True
super(S3PipelineStorage, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
Using the settings as follows:
COMPRESS_STORAGE = STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'my.apps.main.S3PipelineStorage'

Not sure how this seemed to work for everyone else. I followed the solution above and kept getting the following error:

It wasn't until I came across this solution that I started to find what worked for me. Here's the storage that I ended up using that saved the file locally as well as in S3 which got me passed all errors:
from django.contrib.staticfiles.storage import ManifestFilesMixin
from django.core.files.storage import get_storage_class
from pipeline.storage import PipelineMixin
from storages.backends.s3boto import S3BotoStorage
class StaticStorage(PipelineMixin, ManifestFilesMixin, S3BotoStorage):

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(StaticStorage, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.local_storage = get_storage_class(

def save(self, name, content):
name = super(StaticStorage, self).save(name, content)
self.local_storage._save(name, content)
return name

'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'user' in Google App Engine

I'm new to django and Google App Engine, and I'm having trouble with using the datastore. Every time I make a query, such as
db.GqlQuery("SELECT * FROM Listing ORDER BY date DESC LIMIT 10")
I receive the error:
'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'user'
This error seems to be generated in context_processors.py within the django core. Now, the advice I've found on the Internet said to comment out user-related INSTALLED_APPS and MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES, but this does not seem to help. My code looks like this:
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
# 'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
# 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
# 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
# 'django.middleware.doc.XViewMiddleware',
)
INSTALLED_APPS = (
# 'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
# 'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.sites',
)
My Listing object is defined as the following (it had a author property earlier, but this is now commented out and the object was redefined with a new name):
class Listing(db.Model):
#author = db.UserProperty()
address = db.StringProperty()
date = db.DateTimeProperty(auto_now_add=True)
coords = db.GeoPtProperty()
Does anyone know what is causing this error, and how to fix it? Is it perhaps a case of having to reset the settings somehow?

UPDATE
The solution suggested by sdolan seems to be to add the following to the settings.py of the app:
TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
"django.core.context_processors.debug",
"django.core.context_processors.i18n")
This effectively removes the third default processor, django.core.context_processors.auth (which shouldn't be there because for AppEngine we don't want Django's auth component).
Thank you, sdolan, for the solution! hopefully someone else can use it, too. :)
#Nick, I think it's worth putting this golden piece about CONTEXT_PROCESSORS in the tutorial (http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/django.html)
(Original followup to the question)
Have the same problem, looking for solution.... All works fine when settings.py contains
