OK: Trying to get a handle on getting started with Django and like I always do when learning a new environment I've dived in head first.
Here is an error message I'm getting. pe...@slcjwebapp0:~/agilitystewards$ python manage.py syncdb Error: Couldn't install apps, because there were errors in one or more models: agilitystewards: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'max_length' Now, my models file almost looks like the example that I saw on the Django web site and here it is: pe...@slcjwebapp0:~/agilitystewards$ cat models.py from django.db import models class Person(models.Model): first_name = models.CharField(max_length=30) last_name = models.CharField(max_length=30) class Person2(models.Model): given_name=models.CharField(max_length=40) surname = models.CharField(max_length=40) class Account (models.Model): person = models.ForeignKey(Person) login_id = models.CharField(max_length=15) password = models.CharField(max_length=30) lastLogin = models.DateTimeField() class Dog (models.Model): person = models.ForeignKey(Person) callname = models.CharField(max_length=20) jump_height = models.IntegerField() class Venue (models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=30) abbr = models.CharField(max_length=10) class CompeteLevel (models.Model): venue = models.ForeignKey(Venue) name = models.CharField(max_length=50) abbr = models.CharField(max_length=8) class EventClassType (models.Model): venue = models.ForeignKey(Venue) name = models.CharField(max_length=50) abbr = models.CharField(max_length=8) class Club (models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=30) abbr = modesl.CharField(max_length=10) class Trial (models.Model): venue = models.ForeignKey(Venue) club = models.ForeignKey(Club) name = models.CharField(max_length=50) RUNNING_ORDER_CHOICES = ( ('B','Big to Small'), ('S','Small to Big') ); class TrialDate(models.Model): trial = models.ForeignKey(Trial) day_date = Models.DateField running_order = Models.CharField(max_length=1,choices=RUNNING_ORDER_CHOICES) nrings = Models.IntegerField() class Ring(models.Model): trialDate = models.ForeignKey(TrialDate) ringHandle = Models.CharField(max_length=30) Nothing really fancy there.

My assumption is that I'm the one messed up here, not Django, so where am I going wrong? -- Peter L.
