Django 1.4 messages framework

Question

development server use django1.3 but deployment server is powered by django1.4. Messages framework won't work at all on the django1.4 but works great on 1.3 with following code.

settings.py

    MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
        'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
        'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
        'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
        'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
        'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
    )
    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        'django.contrib.auth',
        'django.contrib.contenttypes',
        'django.contrib.sessions',
        'django.contrib.sites',
        'django.contrib.messages',
        'django.contrib.staticfiles',
        'django.contrib.admin',
        ... ,
    )

views.py

    from django.contrib import messages
    from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
    ...

    def some_view(request):
        ...
        mess1 = 'Thank you! Your message was received.' 
        messages.info(request, mess1)
        return HttpResponseRedirect('/contact/')

template

    {% if messages %}
        <ul class="messages">
            {% for message in messages %}
            <li{% if message.tags %} class="{{ message.tags }}"{% endif %}>
            {{ message }}
            </li>
            {% endfor %}
        </ul>
    {% endif %}

Where is the view that actually renders that template? – Daniel Roseman Jan 06 '13 at 12:00 — Daniel Roseman, Jan 06 '13 at 12:00

Have you added the messages template context processor?

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
    "django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages",
)

See this for more info.
