I have a new Django 1.3 project and app that I've created. I added south to my settings.py
and have not yet run syncdb
. When I execute the following commands per the South tutorial and documentation, I received the error shown below.
- Any thoughts on what's causing the problem? Update: Not properly installing South (see answer).
- Is South 0.7.3 compatible with Django 1.3? Update: Yes.
Commands Executed and South Error
