OK, I think we're both misunderstanding here. What I'm saying is that doing this: u = User(username='foo', password='bar') u.save() *should* be throwing errors, because you have to supply values for all the required fields. The fact that the model defines some default values doesn't actually mean you can leave those out -- default values are *only* used when displaying a form to the user, they're not "auto-filled" by Django in other cases. Which is why I suggested using 'User.objects.create_user', which *will* work with only three arguments (username, password and email address) and will make sure all the other required fields are filled in. -- "May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house." -- George Carlin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
