#23553 closed Bug (duplicate)

Incorrect LOCALE_PATHS settings doesn't raise any exception

Description

I had following line in settings:

LOCALE_PATHS = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'locale')

which is invalid. LOCALE_PATHS must be list or tuple of paths, not string.

Runserver command doesn't raise any warning or error. System check doesn't find any issue. Still, runserver auto-reloading is broken with this settings and it's quiet difficult to spot this bug.

Compared with other similar settings:

  • TEMPLATE_DIRS raises ImproperlyConfigured directly
  • STATICFILES_DIRS raises ImproperlyConfigured with command collectstatic, runserver works fine (even with reloading).
