OSX 10.7.3, PyCharm version 2.5 build PY 117.200
I'll run through how I get the error:
- I start a new project
- Create a new VirtualEnv and select Python 2.7 as my base interpreter (leave inherit global packages un-ticked)
- Click Install and choose Django v1.4
- Select
Django
project type - Tick
Enable Admin
- Open
settings.py
and addsqlite3
toDATABASES:ENGINE
- Run
sync.db
- Get to the point of creating a database superuser
- locale error
The problem seems to be that getdefaultlocale() method is not returning anything (well, None).
return getpass.getuser().decode(locale.getdefaultlocale()[1])TypeError: decode() argument 1 must be string, not None
However if I enable the virtualenv workon MyApplication
and run python
with the following code:
Python 2.7.2 (default, Feb 7 2012, 23:16:02)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple Clang 3.0 (tags/Apple/clang-211.10.1)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import locale
>>> print locale.getdefaultlocale()
('en_GB', 'UTF-8')
So does anybody know what's going on?
Full Output:
bash -cl "/Users/ash/.virtualenvs/Tester/bin/python /Applications/PyCharm.app/helpers/pycharm/django_manage.py syncdb"

Creating table django_admin_logYou just installed Django's auth system, which means you don't have any superusers defined.
Would you like to create one now? (yes/no): yes
