Comment (by bmispelon):
Hi,
1) The current release for the 1.4 branch is 1.4.10. If your distribution
ships 1.4.5, you should file an issue with is maintainers because that
version is not supported and has security vulnerabilities.
2) Your report is not actionable for us. You're clearly having an issue
but you're not providing us with any information as to how to reproduce
the problem which means we can't really do anything. On top of that, as
Tim mentionned, the 1.4 release was released several years ago and I
suspect many people have been able to go through the tutorial.
3) Django is a community project run by volunteers. Dismissing our work
the way you do ("totally worthless") is not the way to report a problem
you're having.
As Tim wrote in his first comment, your problem is most likely caused by
the fact that you're reading the documentation for a more recent version
of Django than the one you have installed. There is a version switcher at
the bottom right hand side of every page of the documentation that will
help you switch easily between version.
