Error: “dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 1; 2 is required” on Django 1.4

Question

I have an error message on django 1.4:

dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 1; 2 is required

[EDIT]

It happe

Answer 1

The error should be with the params. Please verify that the params is a dictionary object. If it is just a list/tuple of arguments use only one * (*params) instead of two * (**params). This will explode the list/tuple into the proper amount of arguments.

Or, if the params is coming from some other part of code as a JSON file, please do json.loads(params), because the JSON objects sometimes behave as string and so you need to make it as a JSON using load from string (loads).

super(HStoreDictionary, self).__init__(value, **params)

Hope this helps!
