I am facing some problems with my Django installation.
I am using Ubuntu as my OS.

Eclipse was installed through the Sofware center. Pydev through the plug-in Option in Eclipse. Django was installed as described in the Tutorial. Now I am facing this problem:

from django.core.management.validation import max_length

throws a Unresolved import: max_length.

I found information about adding Django Paths to the PythonPaths.
But the mentioned solutions did not solve my problem. Heres what Eclipse found with autoconfig:

![2]: http://i40.tinypic.com/favksz.png “Part2”

Can someone please explain which paths have to be set up? I am lost.

Thank you.

    I’m going to go out on a limb and say that you’re real problem is you shouldn’t be using this import in the first place.

    I’ve seen similar things happen to me in Aptana Studio (basically same as Eclipse). When adding a CharField to a model, you start typing “max_length” and it pops up a code-completion menu. But when you go ahead and have it complete “max_length” for you, it actually adds that import, which is a nonsense import. It results in an ImportError and it’s not necessary.

    If this sounds familiar, then just remove that import and go about your day.
