Hello, I'm not really an expert and everyone's configuration is different so rather than address your problem directly I'll provide a guide for how I got Postgres/Django to work together on Windows.
1. Download the Postgres installer found here<http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/> . 2. Install Postgres and create a password when prompted. 3. Open the pgAdmin III tool and connect to your postgres server. (You should be prompted for a password) 4. Create a database (note the name you use) 5. Modify your settings.py file to reflect these changes. My settings look like this: DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2', 'NAME': 'djangodev', #Name of the Database you created previously 'USER': 'postgres', #Postgres username, the installer I used created the user postgres by default. 'PASSWORD': '<PASSWORD>', #Postgres password for the user above. (The one you created during setup) 'HOST': '', #I'm using 'local host' so this is blank. 'PORT': '5432', #I specified the port my local server is running on, I'm not sure if this was necessary } } I'm not very familiar with postgres yet so I'm not certain if the name in your settings file is valid but I would guess 'mydb.db' is supposed to be the name of the database file that would be used by SQLite instead of the database name for a Postgres db. If you wanted to use SQLite you could create mydb.db in the same directory as your settings file (or somewhere else and modify the path) then remove the user/password setting. Hope that helped!
