Startup error: couldn't load USER_SETTINGS.EDITABLE_SCREEN_NAME

Hi, I'm getting this error upon performing a clean installation of askbot (dev version):

Startup error, couldn't load USER_SETTINGS.EDITABLE_SCREEN_NAME

The backtrace is as follows: Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi, what is your CACHE_BACKEND setting? (in settings.py)

Also - what OS are you using?

I assume you've ran syncdb and migrate askbot commands beforehand...

I have seen a similar error when I switch CACHE_BACKEND from locmem:/// so something else but did not investigate the source of it yet. I'll try to figure this out this weekend.

Thanks.

Thanks for the hints, I forgot to run syncdb and migrate commands. Now the installation appears to be working.
