    问题已经打印得比较清楚了，就是mysql db的字段：location不够长。要写入的city字符串长度超过了db定义的长度。
    用下面的方法来解决，加断言，加try catch()语言捕获异常。
            try:
            # we save the data to mysql as gps-log-record for check
            log_item = LogUserLocation()
            log_item.user_id = user_id
            log_item.gps_lat = gps_lat
            log_item.gps_lon = gps_lon
            assert (len(str(live_data['city'])) < 800)
            log_item.location = live_data['city']
            log_item.save()
        except Exception as e:
            logging.error("e4=" + repr(e))
