Hello,
Neither approach seemed to work so I ended up changing the field to a
fixed-length type in the model and resyncing my tables which seems to work.
Anyways, thank you for the suggestions.

Actually, one suggestion: you could try removing the field from the
list_display option on the ModelAdmin. I think you would also need to
override the get_queryset method on the ModelAdmin to .defer() the field,
as it doesn't look like the admin would do that automatically.

Yes, this is caused by the use of a SELECT DISTINCT over a LOB column,
which Oracle does not allow. The DISTINCT was added to admin queries over
joined fields as a result of ticket #15819. As for workarounds -- I'm
afraid I don't have any suggestions for you.

Re: Oracle database TextField limitations and Django admin interface queries
Thank you for the reply,
The field is defined in the Django model as:
location_description = models.TextField(_('additional route information'),
blank=True)
Data length for the corresponding column in the database seems to be 4000
and the type is NCLOB. The database is created by Django's syncdb and is
not a legacy one.
This is the raw SQL query the Django admin interface produces:
SELECT DISTINCT "app_route"."id",
"app_route"."route_no",
"app_route"."owner_no",
"app_route"."municipality_code",
"app_route"."location_description",
"app_route"."latitude",
"app_route"."longitude"
FROM "app_route"
inner join "app_observationevent"
ON ( "app_route"."id" =
"app_observationevent"."route_id" )
WHERE "app_observationevent"."observation_date" >= :arg0
ORDER BY "app_route"."id" DESC
Executing it via the Django management shell django.db.connection produces
the same error (ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got NCLOB)
but when I remove the "app_route"."location_description" field from the
SELECT projection the query executes successfully.

Oracle database TextField limitations and Django admin interface queries
A little background: my application is used to manage observational data which is collected from designated routes annually. Each route object has a set of observation events which in turn have a date field. The data is managed by using a (terrible) customized Django admin interface. In the admin interface list view it's possible to search routes using a custom search box which just injects parameters like ?route_no=1234 and so forth into the url resulting in a filtered list view. For the most part this works but when I want to search for routes that, for example, have observation events past certain date with a query like ?observationevent__observation_date__gte=2010-01-01 (supposed to show all routes that have been observed this decade) it raises an DatabaseError: ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got NCLOB-exception while using an Oracle database in production. The query seems to work when using a development SQLite database or doing a query like Route.objects.filter(observationevent__observation_date__gte='2012-01-01') directly in the management console even when using the Oracle production database.

Re: LIMITATIONS of django
This is not really an appropriate question. Django, like many frameworks is a collection of libraries written in some language. Django happens to be written in Python; as such, your proficiency with Python will have an effect on what you can and can't do with Django. Django provides a lot of useful tools to assist you along the way but it doesn't replace the need for solid coding skills in Python, HTML, JavaScript, and (at least some) knowledge of databases. So in short, you're limited only by your own knowledge. I'm sure a ruby or perl developer would say the same of their respective frameworks.
