I can't get the tutorial working for me. When I try to run the command:
python manage.py syncdb
I get this error:

My settings file has this for databases:

'postgresql_psycopg2', 'postgresql', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'.
'NAME': '/home/maxim/mysite/mysite.db', # Or
path to database file if using sqlite3.
'USER': '', # Not used with sqlite3.
'PASSWORD': '', # Not used with sqlite3.

localhost. Not used with sqlite3.
'PORT': '', # Set to empty string for default.
Not used with sqlite3.
}
