It looks like the issue is resolved. Many thanks to Kenneth and Daniel. Here's the summary to help others:
It looked at first like the PYTHONPATH was not picking any of my apps or the third-party apps up when running syncdb. This was not the case. Instead, coltrane's classes weren't loading because errors in its imports. Here's the RCA. import User ======= The top of models.py in the coltrane app looked like this. import datetime from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth import User from markdown import markdown from tagging.fields import TagField ... Using the python shell, I determined it could not import User; no module. Looking closer, I noticed that I forgot the "models" part of the import. I changed it to look like this: import datetime from django.db import models from django.contrib.auth.models import User from markdown import markdown from tagging.fields import TagField ... markdown ====== I again turned to the python shell to test the import of Category. Again it failed, this time complaining about markdown. But I installed markdown using its own installer. Wasn't that good enough? No. The markdown directory had to be on the PYTHONPATH, so I downloaded it again and placed it there. django-tagging ========= The last problem was with the tagging app, specifically a class parse_lookup, which was deprecated. I uninstalled the tagging app from /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages, then checked out the latest SVN trunk to my PYTHONPATH. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
