error msg:django.db.utils.OperationalError: duplicate column name: birthday_dayofyear_internal

may i ask how fix this problem?
thanks for your time

When you already have a model with a DateField for birthdays and you change that field for BirthdayField field you don't have the %s_dayofyear_internal field updated due to this field is updated with a pre_save signal. So, you can not use the provided methods.

You have to use something like [c.save() for c in Client.objects.all()] to update all your Client objects getting the presignal executed for each object.

It's a good idea you to document this problem in your docs.

Do you know a better way to update that field instead of use that loop?

It seems, that internal help-column for sorting birthdays is not dealing correctly with leap years...anyone to confirm that issue?

from django.db import models
import birthday

class CRUD(models.Model):
    ...
    birthday = birthday.fields.BirthdayField() 
    objects = birthday.managers.BirthdayManager()
    ...

Hi, want to change the period for upcoming BDays being counted from tomorrow, not today. i am new to python and django, so i am sure it is my fault and i forgot something in the syntax:

def my_view(request)

return render (request, bday.html {
'upcoming_birthdays': Employees.objects.get_upcoming_birthdays(after=1)
})

with a "'str' object has no attribute 'timetuple'" error....
