django translation template {% trans “something” %}

Question

Ok I have been searching like crazy for this I think simple problem.

I use Django 1.4

The problem is that django won\'t translate a simple {% trans \"work\"

Answer 1

I just spent few hours trying to fix this issue in Django 1.5 while working on my new project Sportolio and it turned out I was missing a comma at the end of LOCALE_PATH

LOCALE_PATHS = (
    '/path/to/my/project/locale/',
)

This is very crucial, as Django expects LOCALE_PATHS to be a TUPLE not a String.

I hope it save someone's life :)
