Question

I am wondering if GeoDjango 1.0.2 supports django.contrib.messages because when I execute ‘python manage.py syncdb’, I am receiving the below error messages.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 11, in <module>
    execute_manager(settings)
  File "C:\Program Files\GeoDjango\Django-1.0.2-final\django\core\management\__init__.py", line 340, in execute_manager

Answer 1

The messaging framework was added in Django 1.2, so the answer to your question is probably ‘no.’ (See https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/messages/.)
