Violating unique constraint in the admin

[Fab]

Hi,

When I violate a unique constraint in the admin I get an error page.

I know I can check this myself and show an error message when the form is cleaned but I feel like this should be handled by default.

Are there any reasons why it shouldn't show an error message on the admin page?

Cheers,

Fabian

Hi, there have been some past discussions, e.g. https://groups.google.com/g/django-developers/c/Dju2vvbzECI/m/vYDnYekgBQAJ

See also https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/30581 which hoists constraint validation to forms in general, not just the admin.
