I am using my existing mysql db. I found out that if I have an enum and try
to insert a value not present in the enum this error will occur.

However, my problem occurs on a TimeField. I created this field using
phpMyAdmin, it is a timestamp, and default is current time. Therefore, I
did the following in my Django model:

message_create_time = models.TimeField(auto_now_add=True)

When I create an object, and save, it gives me:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py", line

    warn(w[-1], self.Warning, 3)
Warning: Data truncated for column 'message_create_time' at row 1


However if I change it to :
message_create_time = models.DateTimeField()


It works perfectly.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
