* status: closed => new * resolution: needsinfo => Comment: To experience the bug: In any Django project, set the default value of a CharField as an enum object: {{{ class EnumClass(Enum): VALUE = _('Value') }}} where: VALUE: is the constant enum object name 'Value': is the translatable enum object value In the model: {{{ field = models.CharField(default=EnumClass.VALUE, max_length=128) }}} then run: python manage.py makemigrations In the generated migration file, you will notice that the default value of the field is set to: EnumClass('Value'), so it calls the enum object by its value not it is constant name. run: python manage.py migrate In the settings.py file: {{{ LANGUAGE_CODE = 'fr-FR' # set it to any language code other than English }}} Run the project after generating, translating, and compiling the messages file (see: [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/topics/i18n/translation /#message-files message-files]) The project will raise the error: {{{ ValueError: 'Value' is not a valid EnumClass }}}, on the generated migration file. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/30774#comment:3> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
