When I run python manage.py syncdb I get the following error. I left
the name field blank expecting Django to fill in the file name. Am I
miss understanding the Name section of the intro?
"NAME -- The name of your database. If you're using SQLite, the
database will be a file on your computer; in that case, NAME should be
the full absolute path, including filename, of that file. If the file
doesn't exist, it will automatically be created when you synchronize
the database for the first time (see below)."
I am running Django in a virtualenv and am using
Traceback (most recent call last):
