Hi guys,
I'm working on the tutorial on www.djangobook.com.
I've created a database using "manage.py starapp books" then i
modified the "models.py" file to include classes where each class
represents a column in the database. then i modified the "settings.py"
file to include the following:
DATABASE_ENGINE = 'mysql'
DATABASE_NAME = 'books'
DATABASE_USER = 'Lina'
DATABASE_PASSWORD = 'somepassword'
DATABASE_HOST = 'localhost'
DATABASE_PORT = '3306'
and:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
#'django.contrib.admin',
'helloworld.books',
#'django.contrib.auth',
#'django.contrib.contenttypes',
#'django.contrib.sessions',
#'django.contrib.sites',
)
should i be good to go or what? why do i get the long long long error
that ends with:
_mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (1049, "Unknown database 'books'")
when i try to validate the database using "C:\....path to django
project folder...> python manage.py validate"
I really need and appreciate your help.
cheers,
Lina
