I am going through the GeoDjango tutorial from the official documentation.
1. I have installed the required geospatial libraries, installed and
enabled spatial functionality by extending the PostgreSQL via postgis.
2. Downloaded the world borders data, and have unzipped the data.
3. Created a GeoDjango model (WorldBorder) in the world app.
4. Created the load.py inside the world app, as instructed in the
documentation.
But when I try to import the *load* module and call the *run* routine, I am
getting an error:
Failed to save the feature (id: 141) into the model with the keyword

I cannot figure out where I am wrong. Could you please help me out? Thank
you.
