Hmm, I'd seen this solution in http://keeyai.com/2012/02/17/django-deployment-create-superuser-fails-with-locale-error/ but was reluctant to use this as " I have no idea if this causes any negative side effects."
A running system is not usually considered a negative side effect ;)

Everything will fail without this mod afaik.

So that is the official repair?
Mac OS does not set the default language environment in a way that python (at least) recognizes. This is true for python installations done from MacPorts so I think it is independent of the installation technique. You will need to do this (slight) mod to manage.py to have things work.

Since you are on Mac OS X, I *strongly* recommend using virtualenv to do your basic installation of packages. Once you get a mix of python libs which may install under the original python installation, or may install under the MacPorts installation area, or may install somewhere else, you will slowly go nuts trying to keep it straight.

virtualenv gets you a consistent development and runtime environment and is very repeatable.

I'm not remembering when in the process you will find failures if you are missing that mod to manage.py; I have not tracked down your links to other places. Do you want to post the exact error you are seeing?

OK.
Thanks!

    I'm a newbie following the tutorial. In this, creating a superuser
    is described, using

    manage.py createsuperuser --username=joe --email=j...@example.com  
<mailto:j...@example.com>


    Using this leads to an error, which I could match to the closed
    ticket #16017.

    But I couldn't find how to proceed from there. It seems some
    software was changed about 4 weeks ago:
    "Made createsuperuser more robust when getting current OS username."

    So where can I find it?
    [I'm assuming there is a procedure for this, but I'm sorry to say
    I couldn't find that either]
