Note that the suggestion to run sqlall does not create the tables, it  
merely dumps the SQL that would be executed, so you can read it and  
find any possible errors. It is the install command that actually  
creates the tables for your models. If you read the error message  
there are other possibilities, such as your database not running or a  
table that already exists when Django is trying to create it.

Go back and check the instructions, this tutorial works, you just  
have to make sure you read each step carefully and understand what  
each command does.
