Question

I’m having strange error with installing fixture from dumped data. I am using psycopg2, and django1.1.1

silver:probsbox oleg$ python manage.py loaddata /Users/oleg/probs.json 
Installing json fixture '/Users/oleg/probs' from '/Users/oleg/probs'.
Problem installing fixture '/Users/oleg/probs.json': Traceback (most recent call last):

ProgrammingError: can't adapt

First I’ve checked similar issues on internet. This one seemed to be very related: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/5996, as my data has many non ASCII symbols

But actually I’ve checked my django installation and it’s ok there

Could you advice what is wrong

Continued investigation after added print statement as suggested by the first answer. Log looks this way:

Ok, I ended copying dump from my database, and restoring it locally without python…
