I am relatively new to django. I have defined my db schema and validated it with no errors (manage.py validate reports 0 errors found).

Yet when I run ./manage.py syncdb

I get the following stack trace:

```

```

I have checked (and double checked) my table schema. All name field are CharField type with maximum length = 64. The backend db I am using is MySQL, so I am sure that indexes can be created for strings of length 64.

What could be causing this error (I suspect it is a misleading error message - even though its coming from the db itself)...
