{{{
SystemCheckError: System check identified some issues:

ERRORS:
resources.Resource.test: (fields.E008) Invalid 'default' value: Ensure this value has at most %(limit_value)d characters (it has %(show_value)d).
resources.Resource.test: (fields.E120) CharFields must define a 'max_length' attribute.

With this code:
{{{
    test = models.CharField(
        choices=(
            ('foo','bar'),
        ),
        default='foo',
    )
}}}

Adding max_length resolves both errors."	Bug	closed	Database layer (models, ORM)	1.9b1	Normal	fixed			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
