I have a custom field type that I defined, and now I can't do a syncdb. The relevant bits of the type are
class PyMongoField(models.CharField): __metaclass__ = models.SubFieldBase ... def db_type(self, connection): return 'varchar(64)' ... But I just get this when I do reset or syncdb on an app with a model that uses that field type. Any clue?
