22011	no request.user on error pages	Viktor	nobody	"Hi,

I don't know how much complexity this needs to be reproduced, but I'll try to describe the key elements.

Basically, I would like custom error pages to be handled by the django backend, especially by django-cms. I've followed this setup:

http://ilian.i-n-i.org/custom-404-not-found-page-with-django-cms/

Moreover, I've tried the same for 500 pages too. Now, I've found the following:

* if DEBUG = True, then django's 404 page shows up
* if DEBUG = False, then neither of my views is called, and some weird 500 page shows up

I could not get my 500 page to be called at all. (I've tried it by not setting up the 404 page to be server on 404 calls.)

The traceback follows:
{{{
