Hi, I'm working through the tutorail. Part 1 was fine, and part 2 shows me the site with the light blue background. I proceed to make my first app, 'djangotest'.
1. I run django-admin.py and get a project 2. I edit settings.py to select sqlite3, and put in an absolute path to a sqlite db file. I leave 'America/Chicago' unchanged. the same error happens if I change it to my timezone in EST. 3. When I run syncdb, I get this error. I look in the source and it has something to do with 'locale' and a tuple of (None, None). Please help. [-----] python manage.py syncdb Creating tables ...
