Haystack / Whoosh Index Generation Error
- by Keith Fitzgerald
I'm trying to setup haystack with whoosh backend. When i try to gen the index [or any index command for that matter] i receive:
TypeError: Item in ``from list'' not a string
if i completely remove my search_indexes.py i get the same error [so i'm guessing it can't find that file at all]
what might cause this error? it's set to autodiscover and i'm sure my app is installed because i'm currently using it.
Full traceback:
