I'm working with data in Blobs in sqlite. It is purely binary (like an image for example) and not information that can be converted to a string.
When I get that data through django's model, I get the following error:
File "\site-packages\django\db\models\query.py", line 674, in first

django.db.utils.OperationalError: Could not decode to UTF-8 column 'msrepl_synctran_ts' with text ''
I researched quite a bit about this, but there wasn't much information on the internet.
Please suggest me a workaround.
I don't need the msrepl_synctran_ts data to be visible/editable in the django model. I just want to load a model with a column called msrepl_synctran_ts.
Please don't use Trac as a support channel. Closing per TicketClosingReasons/UseSupportChannels. I'm happy to respond on support channels.
