Thanks for the response. To answer your questions:
1. Have you set up a DB and put the details into your settings.py? If not,
this is the problem.
*Yes, all the details of my db are in the settings. I am convinced that the
syncdb works since when I ran it the first time, a few tables were created;*
auth_group,auth_group_permissions,auth_permission,auth_user, etc.
2. If you have done that, then the next step is to try another python
manage syncdb
*Yep, ran it again and rechecked the database. Nothing new.*
3. Are you running python manage.py sql polls from the directory with
manage.py in it?
*Yep, running it the same directory as manage.py*
4. What is your OS and which version of Django?
*I am on a shared hosting. I am not sure of the version of Linux but it
does list kernel version of 2.6.32-20120131.55.1.bh6.x86_*
*Django version is the most recent: 1.4.2*
