I use form_for_models and form_for_instance to build my forms to populate my DB. For validation I use .is_valid(): Example: {{{ if request.method == 'POST': f = ServerForm(request.POST) if f.is_valid(): saveobject = f.save() }}} If I test this by trying to add a duplicate entry, I get a ""duplicate key violates unique constraint"" instead of the expected error-message in my forms as for the other validation.
