Description
Page two of the django tutorial is missing a step. After adding the code for added in polls in the administration, it goes straight to "restart your server." The database needs to be synched before starting the development server again.
Go to…
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/intro/tutorial02/
Subsection entitled "Make the poll app modifiable in the admin"…
Create admin.py file…
*The missing critical step to create the necessary admin table…
python manage.py syncdb*
Then…
Restart the server.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
No, there is no need to run
manage syncdbat that point because there is no need to create new DB tables from the actions you performed in the tutorial 2 so far (no new models were added to the models.py file).If you run
manage.py syncdbat that point and it reports it is creating at least one database table. It is because you forgot to execute it when following part 1 of the tutorial.
