Russiandef get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
# Call the base implementation first to get a context
context = super(IndexView, self).get_context_data(**kwargs)
"""Return the last five published posts."""
context['latest_post_list'] = Post.objects.order_by('-pub_date')[:5]
context['archives'] = Post.objects.datetimes('pub_date', 'month', order='DESC')
return context;
In my template:
{% for archive in archives %}
<li><a href="#">{{ archive.month }} {{ archive.year }}</a></li>
{% endfor %}
And in my settings:
TIME_ZONE = 'America/Montreal'
What I would like to do is get some kind of an archive system going. Where it is possible to get the different months and years there was any posts.

Solution 2
It's really hard to tell since I can't see your data, but it looks like somewhere you have "Eastern Standard Time" in a data field/column for a time zone.
Python uses IANA/Olson time zones, via the pytz package. So your data should have "America/New_York" for US Eastern time.
OTHER TIPS
Installed pytz and the error went away:
pip install pytz
This may be a Windows only issue, see the note https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#std:setting-TIME_ZONE.
