IntegerField and null/blank values error

[Matt]

I inherited a Django 0.96 app recently and along with it I inherited
an error which I can't figure out.

The error will happen in the Admin interface whenever I try to add a
new entry if I leave one of the fields blank. At first I thought the
model was missing null=True or blank=True parameters but that isn't
the case. Also, I looked at the underlying table in MySQL and that
column will allow nulls. And yet I still get this error:

(1048, "Column 'order' cannot be null")

In my model, I have an integer field called "order" which is not a FK
or anything, it's just a ranking value to let items be shown in a
certain order on the page. Seems like it should be pretty simple.

I searched this group and google but I'm not seeing anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
