Hi,

I am new to Django, I am actually starting its tutorial. On part 2 it enables the admin site, but I can't log in to it. The following error comes up (see at the bottom):

If I remember correctly I did not get prompt to create a superuser when I wrote python manage.py syncdb, so I am not sure if I do not have a superuser. I tried to create it with python manage.py createsuperuser --username=david but it is not working.

I am most certain it is something simple...and I tried to follow the steps as exact as I could. I appreciate your help

Have you uncommented the url pattern that activates the admin site?

You can check your user table manually:

    > python manage.py dbshell

    mysql> select * from auth_user;

or

    mysql> select * from auth_user where is_superuser=1;

Hi David, you might have stumbled over a problem I had when I first tried out the tutorial a week ago. I'm using an Oracle database back end, and on my first try of python manage.py syncdb, I also missed the prompt to create a superuser account. The problem was finally identified as a missing privilege for my identified database account. After granting missing privileges, and starting again, everything was fine.

What back end database are you using? Is dictionary DATABASES in settings.py correctly edited for your installed database and user account? Does the account have required privileges to create objects in your account's schema?

HTH, Jon

Tell us what the urls.py and settings.py.
Have you uncomment the line django.admin.site in settings.py
