I've an existing table: db.define_table('service_type', Field('cost_car_km', 'decimal(7,2)', notnull=True), ...)
there is already some data in the table. Now I changed the field to Field('cost_car_km', 'decimal(7,3)', notnull=True), the next time I try to call a page I get this error: IntegrityError: FEHLER: Spalte »cost_car_km__tmp« enthält NULL-Werte the sql.log contains this line: ALTER TABLE service_type ADD cost_car_km__tmp NUMERIC(7,3) NOT NULL; I'm using PostgreSQL, Win 7 and web2py 1.99.2. Am I doing something wrong because this happens quite often for me when I change a field for a table containing data? To solve it I manually change the column in the database, delete the .table file in the databases folder and set fake_migrate=True for this table (and later remove it again).
