I am learning django, and I have a mysite folder. When I synced the database it prompted me to create a superuser. I typed yes, and got halfway through the forms but I couldn't enter any characters when it wanted a password. I searched google and found: python manage.py createsuperuser The same thing happened, I could not enter a password. I am using django 1.5 and python 2.7 in case you need to know.

  • What do you mean you could not enter a password? Any error message that appears? – DigitalDouble May 15 '15 at 01:22
  • Are you talking about the password prompt not showing any characters when you type? That's normal. It's simply hiding whatever you're typing. – univerio May 15 '15 at 01:25

The password or *** characters will not be shown as you type them.

Just type your intended password and press enter. This will give prompt for password confirmation.

Password (again):

If you get any error messages post here.

The password is usually hidden in your IDE so it is not showing up when you're typing it out. Just type the password press enter and re-enter the same thing. Hope this solves the problem.
