Hi,
I am using the Django tutorial (Windows xp, python 2.5.4, django 1.2.3) and
am facing a problem at the point where I have to run syncdb.
python manage.py syncdb
Error message (full error in the end):
* File
"C:\utils\frameworks\Python254\Lib\site-packages\django\db\backends\sqlite3\base.py",
line 174, in _cursor*
* self.connection = Database.connect(**kwargs)*
* sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file*
Steps taken to debug:
1) made sure "name" in the settings file has full path to db file.
2) made sure currently logged in user has full permission to containing
folder and files.
Here is the relevant portion of my setting.py file:
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
'NAME': 'C:/utils/framworks/dlab2/sqlite3.db',
'USER': '', # Not used with sqlite3.
'PASSWORD': '', # Not used with sqlite3.
'HOST': '', # Set to empty string for
localhost. Not used with sqlite3.
'PORT': '', # Set to empty string for default.
Not used with sqlite3.
}
}
your help on this issue would be appreciated.
thanks!
Aj
