Adding a database to the Django Project using Sqlite3 with Python 2.7

Question

I am trying to add a database to the Django Project using Sqlite3 and Python 2.7.

This is how my setting.py looks like:

DATABASES = {
    \'default\         


        

Answer 1

I actually ran into this on windows recently. This is a hack, not a fix or an answer, but it might get you through your problem:

Put this at the top of your manage.py script

import os
os.environ.setdefault('LANG','en_US')

Answer 2

Type this before you execute the python manage.py syncdb

export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

This will solve the error.. Btw i was using mac os x python which was in /usr/bin/python.

Add it to the ./.bash_profile file so that it calls it automatically..
