问题:

I am trying to follow the django tutorial. I am running on windows+eclipse. When I run python manage.py runserver I get the message Validating models... and afterwards see no progress...

Am I doing something wrong?

回答1:

I've got my answer in another question: can't get django to work in eclipse + windows

When I ran the server with the --noreload option, I saw that there's an exception thrown. After I fixed that, the output does complete, and says:

Validating models...
0 errors found

Django version 1.2.1, using settings 'XXX'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CTRL-BREAK.

回答2:

The shell is running the runserver process, and it won't go back to a command prompt until the server process ends. So, this sounds normal.

Is the server functioning?

You could possibly be importing something in your models.py file that is failing in another file. I had an import in a try/catch clause that caused this behavior. Installing the missing dependency fixed the problem.

This is what you're supposed to see. If you make a request to your test site (via your browser), you will see the log of the request. If you don't see that, then something else is wrong.
