1101	Memcached: fallback method not working.	Espen Grindhaug	Jacob	"I was trying to get memcached working without having the memcached module from ftp://ftp.tummy.com/pub/python-memcached/ installed, that means by using Django's build in memcached client. This is the traceback I got:

{{{>>> from django.core.cache import cache
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ""<stdin>"", line 1, in ?
  File ""/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/core/cache.py"", line 475, in ?
    cache = get_cache(CACHE_BACKEND)
  File ""/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/core/cache.py"", line 472, in get_cache
    return _BACKENDS[scheme](host, params)
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable }}}


It was all fixed by installing the memcached module from tummy.com, but it would be nice if Django's fallback class would work. Or at least warn people that it is not working."	defect	closed	Core (Cache system)		normal	fixed			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
