Django Version upgrade Problem from 3.0.14 to 3.2.16

Hello Everyone,

I am a complete newbie as far as version migrations are concerned, would really appreciate any kind of help(tutorials, personal experiences) to help me out here.

currently I am using Django 3.0.14 version and my app is working good. When I tried to install Django-Debug-toolbar it automatically updated django version to 3.2.16.

Now, when I run the app I am getting an error



File “C:\apps\venv\lib\site-packages\sql_server\pyodbc\compiler.py”, line 358, in compile
return super().compile(node, *args, **kwargs)
File “C:\apps\venv\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\sql\compiler.py”, line 445, in compile
sql, params = node.as_sql(self, self.connection)
File “C:\apps\venv\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\functions\datetime.py”, line 208, in as_sql
sql = connection.ops.date_trunc_sql(self.kind, inner_sql, tzname)

TypeError: date_trunc_sql() takes 3 positional arguments but 4 were given

Is there any possible solution to solve this error? or else do I need to install old Django version again.

Any tips/hints/suggestions or outright solutions are very much appreciated, otherwise, thanks for reading.

Hi,

django-mssql-backend doesn’t support Django 3.1+. You should probably switch to mssql-django · PyPI

Best,

Thank you @felixxm. I will try with mssql-django.
