TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects

I thought I'd give bloggart another go now that the last issue I opened has been fixed. Same steps as before;

git clone git://github.com/Arachnid/bloggart.git git submodule init git submodule update

"Run" using Google AppEngine Launcher Visit http://localhost:8080

You need to edit config.py with your config settings before running it.

Yep, that fixed it. May I suggest replacing the 'None' with '' to prevent this confusion for others in future?

[Arachnid]

Actually, the correct fix would be to exclude that path from 'ROOT_ONLY_FILES' if the relevant config variable isn't set.
