Question

I am new to geodjango. I am using django-1.4.5 and my database settings,

DATABASES = {
    "default": {
        "ENGINE": "django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2", # Add "postgresql_psycopg2", "postgresql", "mysql", "sqlite3" or "oracle".
        "NAME": "mydb",                       # Or path to database file if using sqlite3.
        "USER": "postgres",                             # Not used with sqlite3.
        "PASSWORD": "test",                         # Not used with sqlite3.
        "HOST": "localhost",                             # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3.
        "PORT": "",                             # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3.
    }
}
