I'm very new to python and django. Thanks for the tip. I was trying
to figure out how to set break points.
I figured out what the problem was.
In views.py I was calling the following function to save the data in
the database, which was in a different .py file:
HealthData.saveHealthData(HealthData(),healthData)
Different .py file:
def saveHealthData(self,healthData):
healthData.save()
When I changed the above call in views.py to healthData.save() instead
of calling the external method to save the data, everything worked
fine. This is very strange.
The data was appeared to look fine in the databas, and acted fine when
I pulled it out, but for some reason send_mass_email had an issue with
it.
Something was messing up the way the data was being stored in the
database or something. VERY STRANGE!!!
Any thoughts on what was going on here? Thanks.
