Hi David, you might have stumbled over a problem I had when I first tried out the tutorial a week ago. I'm using an Oracle database back end, and on my first try of python manage.py syncdb, I also missed the prompt to create a superuser account. The problem was finally identified as a missing privilege for my identified database account. After granting missing privileges, and starting again, everything was fine.
What back end database are you using? Is dictionary DATABASES in settings.py correctly edited for your installed database and user account? Does the account have required privileges to create objects in your account's schema?
