[Jython-users] Django on Jython - database for tutorials

[Gregory H. <g.j...@ho...>]

Windows 7Jython 2.5.4rc1Django 1.4Django_Jython 1.3.0jyjdbc 0.0.3 Hello, I am trying to follow the tutorial as available at 'https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/intro/tutorial01/'. I can succesfully create a project and start up the development server without a database specified. However, I cannot get sqlite3 accepted as the database engine. When I edit the settings.py file to indicate sqlite3 and then run the command: 'jython manage.py syncdb' I always get a long error message that terminates with: 'Error loading SQLite3 JDBC driver: No module named sqlite' I have read that Jython is incompatible with sqlite3. I have also read that zxJDBC and jyjdbc can be installed and configured to get things working, but I have no idea how. Simply installing the Django_Jython and jyjdbc packages under jython\lib\site-packages hasn't got me any further. What database should I use for this tutorial and how should I set it up? I am a total Newbie so I would really welcome any and all advice. Many thanks in advance
