问题
I'm getting a non-descriptive (or at least I don't know how to interpret in this context) error message when sub-lassing from a Django-Treebeard node and am not sure how to debug. I'm using the installation instructions at: http://code.tabo.pe/django-treebeard/src/tip/tbexample/ (see at end of posting).
I create a subclass of MP_Node and the syncdb works. However, loading the models.py code into a shell produces a "list index out of range" error - see code and trace below.
Thanks for your help.
Python 2.6.4, Django 1.1, Treebeard 1.1:
try:
from django.db import models, transaction
from django.db.models import AutoField
import django.dispatch
from django.contrib.treebeard.mp_tree import MP_Node
except ImportError, exc:
print "django error in %s: %s" % (__file__, exc)
class DelibNode(MP_Node): pass
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Program Files\Python26\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\base.py", line 52, in __new__
kwargs = {"app_label": model_module.__name__.split('.')[-2]}
IndexError: list index out of range
Installed Apps in Settings.py:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.s ites',
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.treebeard',
'medCE.delib'
)
Instructions:
1. Run easy_install django-treebeard
to install the
latest treebeard version from PyPi
1.1. If you don't like easy_install, download a release from the
treebeard download page or get a development version
from the treebeard mercurial repository and runpython setup.py install
2. Add 'treebeard' to the INSTALLED_APPS
section in your
django settings file.
3. Create a new model that inherits from one of django-treebeard's
abstract tree models: mp_tree.MP_Node (materialized path),
ns_tree.NS_Node (nested sets) or al_tree.AL_Node
(adjacency list).
4. Run python manage.py syncdb

I had the same error today. To fix you first go to your models.py file and in each of the classes you have to add another class:
class Meta:
app_label = 'app_name' # medCE.delib in your case
I think that you are getting this error because of the period in your app name. If an app name is not provided with the Meta class, Django will try to figure it out by itself by decomposing the folder structure. When that happens, it decomposes at the 'period location' and figures out the app name to be medCE or delib in your case, which is obviously not your app name.
I know the question is old, but hopefully it'll help future viewers

You can browse the Django source-code online:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/db/models/base.py#L90
The relevant code that throws the exception has this comment:
# Figure out the app_label by looking one level up.
# For 'django.contrib.sites.models', this would be 'sites'.
So it seems that the code is trying to determine the app that a model belongs to.
To debug this you could simply modify the base.py to catch the IndexError and raise the model_module.__name__.
