Datefield auto_now_add not working with sqlite3?

2009-10-05 Thread Serdar T.
Hi everyone, I'm having a problem with the "auto_now_add" option for DateField. I was under the impression that when you set this option, a datestamp is set automatically for you. But when I try inserting records into my database without supplying a date for this field, I get a NULL value error:

OK. So for posterity's sake, I wanted to note that I solved this problem, and it was completely my own embarrassingly stupid oversight (is there a Jargon acronym for telling yourself to read your own source more closely?). The problem was not the project layout or Django code, but the link in the

Hey everyone, Yes, this is yet another plea for help on configuring the dev server for static media. [insert disclaimer here about reading (and re-reading) docs, countless tutorials, etc.] I believe I have everything set up correctly, yet I can't seem to get Django to serve static media on my d

Hi Russell, Thanks for the response. I'll admit, since I posted, I waved my hand at the problem and imported all of my data through postgres. But I think my problem might be related to what you describe below: > > "Installing json fixture 'data2' from absolute path." > > This gives the first hint

Is it better to create repositories at a site-, project- or app-level? In other words, if I implement the conventional[1] directory structure below, is it better to place the entire site (example.com) under a single git repository, or would it be wiser to create separate git repos for each custom

For posterity, I should point out that Graham's suggestion did indeed work and the final set of problems stemmed from my django app code. I had copied over some old code from my development environment to the production server, but the dev server was running an older version of django so the code
