This example in this repository

https://github.com/mdirolf/DjanMon

is not compliant with Django 1.4, only 1.3 and earlier. We've asked the developer to update the readme on Git, but pull has not been committed yet. Thanks to the 10gen folks for helping figure this one out.

If you've hit the bug, uninstall 1.4 from the venv and reinstall with 1.3, runserver and you should be set.
