Troubleshooting
===============

Sometimes you might have a problem installing/using the |filebrowser|.

Check your setup
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

First, please check if the problem is caused by your setup.

* Read :ref:`quickstart`.
* Check if the static/media-files are served correctly.
* Make sure you have removed all customized filebrowser templates from all locations in TEMPLATE_DIRS paths or check that these templates are compatible with the |filebrowser|.

Run the |filebrowser| tests
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Start the shell and type::

    python manage.py test filebrowser

Check issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^

If your setup is fine, please check if your problem is a known issue.

* Take a look at all `FileBrowser Issues <https://github.com/sehmaschine/django-filebrowser/issues>`_ (incuding closed) and search the `FileBrowser Google-Group <http://groups.google.com/group/django-filebrowser>`_.

Add a ticket
^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you think you've found a bug, please `add a ticket <https://github.com/sehmaschine/django-filebrowser/issues>`_.

* Try to describe your problem as precisely as possible.
* Tell us what you did in order to solve the problem.
* Tell us what version of the |filebrowser| you are using.
* Tell us what version of Django you are using.
* Please do NOT add tickets if you´re having problems with serving static/media-files (because this is not related to the |filebrowser|).
* Please do NOT add tickets referring to Djangos trunk version.
* At best: add a patch.
