Can't get zinnia to work in my django application

Upon accessing the test server/weblog/ url on localhost, in an environment with "latest everything stable" (python 2.7, django 1.4.1, apache 2.2.22) I'm getting:

NoReverseMatch at /weblog/

Reverse for 'zinnia_entry_add' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.

Request Method:     GET
Request URL:    http://127.0.0.1/weblog/
Django Version:     1.4.1
Exception Type:     NoReverseMatch
Exception Value:    

Reverse for 'zinnia_entry_add' with arguments '()' and keyword arguments '{}' not found.

Exception Location:     /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/template/defaulttags.py in render, line 424
Python Executable:  /usr/bin/python
Python Version:     2.7.3

Excerpt from settings.py:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.sites',
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'django.contrib.admindocs',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.comments',
    'image_labeler',
    'tagging',
    'mptt',
    'zinnia',
)

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
    'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
    'django.core.context_processors.i18n',
    'django.core.context_processors.request',
    'django.core.context_processors.media',
    'django.core.context_processors.static',
    'zinnia.context_processors.version',
    )

and from urls.py:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    # Example:
    # (r'^lastpixel/', include('lastpixel.foo.urls')),

    # Uncomment the admin/doc line below and add 'django.contrib.admindocs' 
    # to INSTALLED_APPS to enable admin documentation:
    # (r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls')),

    # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
    (r'^weblog/', include('zinnia.urls')),
    (r'^comments/', include('django.contrib.comments.urls')),
    (r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
    (r'^$', views.Index),
    (r'^login/?$', views.Login),
    (r'^logout/?$', views.Logout),
    (r'^register/?$', views.Register),
    (r'^i$', include('image_labeler.urls')),
    (r'^i/', include('image_labeler.urls')),
    (r'^media/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve', {'document_root': '/home/lastpixel/web/media', 'show_indexes': True}),
    (r'^.*$', views.Index),
)

The application works otherwise (withouth the zinnia blog). Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Much appreciated!

It is likely that it is a namespace problem. In your error page, do you see the inline error highlight something that looks like {% block 'zinnia:zinnia_entry_add' %}? This is part of the zinnia name space, indicated by the zinnia: part of that definition. If you see something like this, you likely just need to add the correct namespace to your URLs:

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    #.....
    (r'^weblog/', include('zinnia.urls', namespace="zinnia")),
    #.....
)

I had a similar problem after updating zinnia. This helped me out, although I didn't expect a solution in mysql:

First, edit /etc/my.conf

[client]
default-character-set=utf8

[mysqld]
default-character-set = utf8
skip-character-set-client-handshake
character-set-server = utf8
collation-server = utf8_general_ci
init-connect = SET NAMES utf8

Second, restart mysql
