Django createsuperuser cannot enter password

Question

I am learning django, and I have a mysite folder. When I synced the database it prompted me to create a superuser. I typed yes, and got halfway through the forms but I couldn't enter any characters when it wanted a password. I searched google and found: python manage.py createsuperuser The same thing happened, I could not enter a password. I am using django 1.5 and python 2.7 in case you need to know.

What do you mean you could not enter a password? Any error message that appears? — DigitalDouble
Are you talking about the password prompt not showing any characters when you type? That's normal. It's simply hiding whatever you're typing. — univerio

The password or *** characters will not be shown as you type them.

Just type your intended password and press enter. This will give prompt for password confirmation.

Password (again):

If you get any error messages post here.
