I created a "fixtures" folder in the app directory and put data1.json in there.

This is what is in the file:

[{"firm_url": "http://www.graychase.com/kadam", "firm_name": "Gray & Chase", "first": " Karin ", "last": "Adam", "school": "Ernst Moritz Arndt University Greifswald",  "year_graduated": " 2004"} ]

In the command line I cd to the app directory and

django-admin.py loaddata data1.json

but I get this error

Installing json fixture 'data1' from
'C:\Users\A\Documents\Projects\Django\sw2\wkw2\fixtures'.
Problem installing fixture

File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\django\core\serializers\python.py", line 76, in Deserializer
Model = _get_model(d["model"])
KeyError: 'model'

What am I doing wrong?

Edit:

I fixed the json format:

[{"pk": 1, "model": "wkw2.Lawyer", "fields": {"school": "The George Washington University Law School", "last": "Babas", "firm_url": "http://www.graychase.com/babbas", "year_graduated": "2005", "firm_name": "Gray & Chase", "first": "Amr A"}}
]

But now I get ValidationError: This value must be an integer. Is there a way to find out from the line numbers what causes the error? Only "pk" is an integer.

it looks like you are not defining your fixtures properly. Take a look at the Django Documentation. You need to define the model that you are loading, then define the fields like this

 [{"model": "myapp.person","pk": 1,"fields": {"first_name": "John","last_name": "Lennon"}},{"model": "myapp.person","pk": 2,"fields": {"first_name": "Paul","last_name": "McCartney"}}
