Description (last modified by Karen Tracey)

In SVN, the admin does not work with USE_ETAGS = True:

Environment:

Traceback:

Fixed formatting, please use preview. I suspect this is due to r16087. It does not happen with 1.3 release. There's also a likely-related thread on django-developers: http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/f96e982254fbe5c3

Yeah, this seems like a rather major issue with the TemplateResponse feature, which I think can only be fixed by actually rendering the content if needed instead of raising a ContentNotRenderedError exception.

With proper documentation of which middlewares/decorator modify the content we should be able to keep the usefulness of TemplateResponse up.

I've got a preliminary fix for this. I'll be at the djangocon sprint in A'dam tomorrow from ~10.00 on to continue work on this.

I think I fixed this for all places patch_response_header is called. I've added a test that fails when USE_ETAGS is set to True and an admin site is called. I've added a few more tests to check various headers with TemplateResponse but I think only the etag is relevant because it requires the content is complete when the etag value is calculated.

The solution, IMO, is using the add_post_render_callback if/when the response is a TemplateResponse (using ducktype checking now rather than using isinstance).

Nevermind. I didn't fully understand the issue.
