Description

I got the following error:

testsite.polls: init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'max_length' 1 error found. Traceback (most recent call last):

File "manage.py", line 11, in <module>

TypeError?: init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'max_length' kimmings-computer:/library/webserver/django/testsite julian$ python manage.py sql polls

when using the line below from above python manage.py sql polls

... after search the docs I found this page - http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/0.96/models/lookup/ - which uses maxlength keyword, not max_length. after changing the keyword everything worked fine.

in instaled on mac osx10.4 using mysql-python-1.2.2 mysql5 django0.96
