Django中的db_type（尝试通过MySQL安装Pootle）

Question

Similar query that was posed to here: Getting db_type() error while using django-facebook connect for DjangoApp

I'm attempting to install Pootle on a CentOS box with the following details:

[root@localhost pootle]# cat /etc/redhat-release<br>
CentOS release 6.2 (Final)
<br>
[root@localhost pootle]# PootleServer --version<br>
Pootle 2.1.6<br>
Translate Toolkit 1.9.0<br>
Django 1.4<br>
[root@localhost pootle]# python -V<br>
Python 2.6.6

I was getting the following error:

Creating tables ...
Traceback (most recent call last):

    self.finish_response()

    col_type = f.db_type(connection=self.connection)

After I edit /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/backends/creation.py to a way I thought would rectify the issue, I'm still getting the following output from my PootleServer screen when I attempt to load the webpage:

Creating tables ...

  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/backends/creation.py", line 45, in sql_create_model
    col_type = f.db_type(self.connection)
TypeError: db_type() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)

The webpage displays:

Error: "(1146, "Table 'p2.siteconfig_siteconfiguration' doesn't exist")" while attempting to access the Pootle database, will try to initialize database.

The line in question is number 44, and looks like this:

    col_type = f.db_type(connection=self.connection)

Which I have commented out, and added a line underneath it to look like this:

    #col_type = f.db_type(connection=self.connection)
    col_type = f.db_type(self.connection)

Previously running the server rendered this error, however it was preceded by a number of successful creation notices, as we can see here:

I'm sorry if this is a lengthy question, however I'm attempting to provide as much relevant information as possible to give you a good idea of what's happening.

If you know a way to fix this issue, please let me know as the internet seems rather lacking in Pootle-related fixes.

Edit: Saw this: How to fix django's db_type deprecation warning?

changed the settings.py file to have this in it:

    col_type = f.db_type(connection=connection)
    #col_type = f.db_type(connection=self.connection)
    #col_type = f.db_type(self.connection)

Getting this error:

NameError: global name 'connection' is not defined

Answer 1

It looks like Pootle doesn't support Django 1.4 Uninstall Django 1.4 and install the older 1.3.1 version.
