newbie having trouble with conversion to south

I'm using django 1.2.1, Python 2.4 and MySQL 5.0 and south 0.7.2

 

I've got an existing app, aptly named "app" which I'm am trying to convert to south so I can make some DB changes.  It seemed to install OK and I get to here.  At which point I'm lost.  Could it be that Python 2.4 logging is not compatible with south?  I'm currently locked in to Python 2.4 to match the release packaged with CentOs.  That's a management edict and there's no point in trying to get them to change just because it would make sense.

 

C:\temp\DjangoSouthRecovery\mds30>python manage.py schemamigration app --auto

 ? The field 'Facility.FAC_ID' does not have a default specified, yet is NOT NULL.

 ? Since you are adding this field, you MUST specify a default

 ? value to use for existing rows. Would you like to:

 ?  1. Quit now, and add a default to the field in models.py

 ?  2. Specify a one-off value to use for existing columns now

 ? Please select a choice: 2

 ? Please enter Python code for your one-off default value.

 ? The datetime module is available, so you can do e.g. datetime.date.today()

 >>> 'xxx'

 + Added field FAC_ID on app.Facility

Created 0002_auto__add_field_facility_FAC_ID.py. You can now apply this migration with: ./manage.py migrate app

 

C:\temp\DjangoSouthRecovery\mds30>python manage.py migrate app

Running migrations for app:

 - Migrating forwards to 0002_auto__add_field_facility_FAC_ID.
