Maybe it is not related to the model definition, but rather the .save() object?

I have created the form 

this is my views.py.

def newdata(request):
    if request.method == "POST":
        MyDataform = Dataform(request.POST)
        if MyDataform.is_valid():
            MyDataform.save()
            results = machinelist.objects.all()
            #result = data.objects.all()
            return redirect('/', {'data': results})
        else:
            MyDataform=Dataform()
            results = machinelist.objects.all()
            result = insert.objects.all()
            return redirect('/',{'data': results},{'record':result})
    else:
        results = machinelist.objects.all()
        result = insert.objects.all()
        return redirect('/', {'data': results},{'record':result})

This is my forms.py

class Dataform(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = insert
        fields = "__all__"

I think you are misunderstanding the use of `auto_now=True`. It will always set that field to the time when the object was last saved; it's not meant to be a form field. See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/ref/models/fields/#datefield. What are you trying to do? Have a date field that is preset to today's date? If it's that, then the next paragraph in the docs explains how to set `default=`.

You definitely have to remove, auto_now=True

[Chelsea Fan]

Replace auto_now to auto_add_now

Why don't you change field type to Char and save the datetimestamp by your side?

Such as others have said, you should remove ```auto_now=True```, after that, you cant  forget to run ```makemigrantions``` and ```migrate```
