Askbot installation error Column 'session_key' cannot be null"
 
   
  
 
 
Hi,
 
I am doing a new deployment of Askbot  by cloning AskBot Gitgub (ASKBOT/askbot-devel.git)
and following installation instructions at askbot.org/doc
 
I tried two installs one with mysql and one with db.sqlite3. "Allow asking without registration" is set to false.
 Both times, I started server using runserver and tried to post a question without logging in. Both times  I get the error session_key' cannot be null.  It did not take me to signup page. Upon investigation, it seems that for table anonymous_question, session key is not set in the code and hence this validation is failing. How do I fix this problem?
 
Error : 
With MySql: (1048,Column 'session_key' cannot be null")
With sqlite3: NOT NULL constraint failed: askbot_anonymousquestion.session_key
 
How do I fix this problem?
