django django-1.2 pinax pinax-0.9

Moving Back from Pinax-dev to Pinax-0.7.1 today, moving from Django-trunk back to 1.1.

django.contrib.messages does not exist yet in 1.1.1. So, we need to remove those settings:

# MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES
"django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware"
# TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS
"django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages"
# INSTALLED_APPS
"django.contrib.messages",

MESSAGE_STORAGE = "django.contrib.messages.storage.session.SessionStorage"

We have to remove the MultiDB:

DATABASES = {
    "default": {
        "ENGINE": "django.contrib.gis.db.backends.postgis",
        "NAME": "XX",
        "USER": "XX",
        "PASSWORD": "XX",
        "HOST": "XX",
        "PORT": "XX",
    }
}

Back to the old:

DATABASE_ENGINE = 'postgresql_psycopg2'
# ...

If your onboard templates make use of some of the newer templatetag libraries, you will need to remove those:

{% load account_tags %}
{% comment %} <b>{% user_display user %}</b> {% endcomment %}

You will need to remove any csrf template tags, {% csrf_token %}.

And remove the MiddleWare, "django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware".

Finally, if you were using the awesome django-staticfiles app, You will have to upgrade staticfiles and change your urlpattern a bit, back to:

if settings.SERVE_MEDIA:
    urlpatterns += patterns('',
        (r'^site_media/', include('staticfiles.urls')),
    )

instead of:

if settings.SERVE_MEDIA:
    urlpatterns += patterns('',
        (r"", include('staticfiles.urls')),
    )
