just starting out with django along with the tutorial - getting a type error

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hi All,

I'm just starting out with django. I want to get familiar with it to
do some inhouse development for myself. I'm following along the
tutorial, but using my own data and examples - i'm trying to create a
very simple request-ticket system. I have got up to the admin
interface part of the tutorial, and i tried to use the admin interface
to add a ticket, but i got the following error:

Environment:

Request Method: POST
Request URL: http://localhost:8000/admin/trak/ticket/add/
Django Version: 0.97-pre-SVN-unknown
Python Version: 2.5.1
Installed Applications:
   ['django.contrib.auth',
 'django.contrib.contenttypes',
 'django.contrib.sessions',
 'django.contrib.sites',
 'mysite.trak',
 'django.contrib.admin']
Installed Middleware:
   ('django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
 'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
 'django.middleware.doc.XViewMiddleware')

Exception Value: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, int found



Here is a copy of my models.py file:

from django.db import models
import datetime

# Create your models here.
class Status(models.Model):
    class Admin:
        pass
    name = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.name


class Submitter(models.Model):
    class Admin:
        pass
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    email = models.EmailField()
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.name

class Ticket(models.Model):
    class Admin:
        pass
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.ticket_numb
    def was_submitted_today(self):
        return self.create_date.date() == datetime.date.today()
    summary = models.TextField()
    date_created = models.DateTimeField('date created')
    status = models.ForeignKey(Status)
    ticket_text = models.TextField()
    submitter_name = models.ForeignKey(Submitter)
    ticket_numb = models.IntegerField().

As soon as I fill in the form to add a  ticket and click the save
button, i get a django error. The funny thing is that it gets added to
the database:

mysql> select * from trak_ticket;
+----+---------+---------------------+-----------+-------------
+-------------------+-------------+
| id | summary | date_created        | status_id | ticket_text |
submitter_name_id | ticket_numb |
+----+---------+---------------------+-----------+-------------
+-------------------+-------------+
|  5 | asdf    | 2007-12-11 14:19:05 |         1 | asdf
|                 1 |           1 |

+-------------------+-------------+
