Ok I managed to get that working, when I start the server I get : Django version 1.1.1, using settings 'mysite.settings' Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/ Quit the server with CONTROL-C. Creating table django_admin_log Creating table auth_permission Creating table auth_group Creating table auth_user Creating table auth_message Creating table django_content_type Creating table django_session Creating table books_publisher Creating table books_author Creating table books_book
the only problem is that when I make the first request it blocks for console input with the following message : You just installed Django's auth system, which means you don't have any superusers defined. Would you like to create one now? (yes/no) If I create a user with the same name created in the startup middleware I get unique constraint database violation, if I choose no everything proceeds smoothly and I can log on with my stub user. I don't want the first request blocking everytime to ask for a new user, can I remove that prompt? Thanks.
