AttributeError: 'DatabaseOperations' object has no attribute 'geo_db_type' with Django 1.7

I'm trying to use django-cities with the new version of Django (1.7) and when I try to run the python manage.py syncdb command to create django-cities tables I got the following error (full traceback):

  Synchronize unmigrated apps: cities
  Apply all migrations: admin, contenttypes, auth, sessions

What DB are you using? Did you setup the GeoDjango extensions for your DB?

Uh! @coderholic I'm sorry, I was doing wrong and I didn't create the DB with postgis template. Thanks for your awesome support!
