django-tracking not compatible with Django 1.6

Question

I am trying to convert a Django 1.3 app to Django 1.6. I am using the django-tracking package but when I start the runsever I get the following error:

Unhandled exception in thread started by <function wrapper at 0x10868e9b0>

ImportError: cannot import name HAS_GEOIP

Answer 1

The answer is here:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/ref/contrib/gis/geoip/#module-django.contrib.gis.geoip

In Django 1.6 the import needed has changed from:
from django.contrib.gis.utils import HAS_GEOIP

to:
from django.contrib.gis.geoip import HAS_GEOIP

Answer 2

You could try to install development version of django-tracking with

pip install git+https://github.com/bashu/django-tracking.git
