    <p>I am trying to save a string contains characters whose ordinal is not in range(128) into database. The field is declared as TextField in model and when I called the save() method, an exception was thrown: </p> <pre><code>File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py", line 434, in save self.save_base(using=using, force_insert=force_insert, force_update=force_update) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/base.py", line 500, in save_base rows = manager.using(using).filter(pk=pk_val)._update(values) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 491, in _update return query.get_compiler(self.db).execute_sql(None) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/sql/compiler.py", line 861, in execute_sql cursor = super(SQLUpdateCompiler, self).execute_sql(result_type) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/sql/compiler.py", line 717, in execute_sql sql, params = self.as_sql() File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/sql/compiler.py", line 826, in as_sql val = field.get_db_prep_save(val, connection=self.connection) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/fields/subclassing.py", line 28, in inner return func(*args, **kwargs) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/fields/subclassing.py", line 28, in inner return func(*args, **kwargs) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/fields/__init__.py", line 276, in get_db_prep_save return self.get_db_prep_value(value, connection=connection, prepared=False) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/fields/subclassing.py", line 53, in inner return func(*args, **kwargs) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/fields/__init__.py", line 652, in get_db_prep_value value = self.get_prep_value(value) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/fields/__init__.py", line 647, in get_prep_value return self.to_python(value) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/fields/__init__.py", line 610, in to_python if not ansi_date_re.search(value): TypeError: expected string or buffer </code></pre> <p>Here is what I did:</p> <pre><code>str_unicode = str.encode('utf-8') m = MyModel.new(str = str_unicode) m.save() </code></pre> <p>So what should I do to enable the unicode compatibility?</p> <p><strong>Updated</strong>: I am currently using sqlite3 for development, python 2.6.1 and Django 1.2.4 on Mac</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
