i have a problem with a local installation on django cms 2.3.3: i've installed it trough pip, in a separated virtualenv. next i followed the tutorial for settings.py configuration, i started the server. Then in the admin i created an page (home), and i've tried to add an image in the placeholder through the cmsplugin_filer_image, but the upload seems that doesn't work. here's my settings.py:

# Django settings for cms1 project.
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

gettext = lambda s: s

when i try to upload an image, in the clipboard section i don't have the thumbnail, but just an 'undefined' message:

enter image description here

and this is the runserver console while trying to upload:

[20/Oct/2012 15:15:56] "POST /admin/filer/clipboard/operations/upload/?qqfile=29708_1306856312320_7706073_n.jpg HTTP/1.1" 500 248133

[20/Oct/2012 15:15:56] "GET /it/admin/filer/folder/unfiled_images/undefined/ HTTP/1.1" 404 1739

Also, this is project filesystem:
