I posted the same question on stackoverflow if anyone wants to answer it there.
I am trying to create a builtin User object that has `is_active = False` but I am getting this error: null value in column "is_active" violates not-null constraint Traceback: File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/core/handlers/base.py" in get_response 111. response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/Users/bli1/Development/Django/beerad/userapp/views.py" in register 30. beerad_user.save() File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py" in save 589. force_update=force_update, update_fields=update_fields) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py" in save_base 617. updated = self._save_table(raw, cls, force_insert, force_update, using, update_fields) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py" in _save_table 698. result = self._do_insert(cls._base_manager, using, fields, update_pk, raw) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py" in _do_insert 731. using=using, raw=raw) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/manager.py" in manager_method 92. return getattr(self.get_queryset(), name)(*args, **kwargs) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py" in _insert 921. return query.get_compiler(using=using).execute_sql(return_id) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/sql/compiler.py" in execute_sql 920. cursor.execute(sql, params) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py" in execute 81. return super(CursorDebugWrapper, self).execute(sql, params) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py" in execute 65. return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/utils.py" in __exit__ 94. six.reraise(dj_exc_type, dj_exc_value, traceback) File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py" in execute 65. return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) Exception Type: IntegrityError at /auth/signup/ Exception Value: null value in column "is_active" violates not-null constraint DETAIL: Failing row contains (9, null, 52eed3a4-5232-4819-af74-d534ca6cc3a7, 12).

Without adding the `is_active` property, creating a new User works but it sets the `is_active` field to be automatically True which isn't something I want. Here is my BeeradUser model: class BeeradUser(models.Model): user = models.OneToOneField(User) activation_key = models.CharField(max_length=36) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
