Sure, here it is:

NameError: name 'settings' is not defined


What i forgot in my first post is 
that i reference the user model like this:

author = models.ForeignKey(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL)

So if i remove that line the syncdb command works 
just fine.

(Apologies for the first reply -- my send button misfired…)

Hi Michael,

It sounds like something else - not related to the your User model - is
going wrong with your app; the error about settings doesn't sound like
something the auth system would be generating.

Can you run:

./manage syncdb --traceback

so we can get the full context of the error message?

Yours,
Russ Magee %-)

django 1.5, subclass AbstractUser -> NameError: name 'settings' is not defined

2012-11-02 Thread Michael Muster
Hi,

I am using django 1.5 and want to add an extra
field to the django user class.
The documentation says that i have to subclass AbstractUser
and add extra fields to it.

So i tried it, in my app 'news' i have:

from django.contrib.auth.models import AbstractUser

class cpUser(AbstractUser):
twitter = models.CharField(max_length=100)
def __unicode__(self):
return self.twitter


and in my settings.py file:

AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'news.cpUser'

however, after running 

$ python manage syncdb 

i get

NameError: name 'settings' is not defined

What am i doing wrong?



best regards,
Michael
