30406	Charfield  max length error.	hardcase	nobody	" Hello

 I have the following bug:

“value too long for type character varying(20)” 

It appears when I am trying to create entry in model with the  following field:

boat_name = models.CharField(max_length=50, unique=True, db_index=True, verbose_name=""Boat model"", help_text=""Please input boat model"", )
As you can see max_length restriction here is 50 symbols, but error is appear on 20 plus.  I have tried to change this max_length in database(postrgee), to change it by command :
ALTER TABLE boats_boatmodel  ALTER COLUMN boat_name TYPE VARCHAR(50)
to change Charfielt to Textfield
to delete this field, then migrate, then add it again, then migrate – no effect
to change max_length in models -no effect
