Error: “dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 1; 2 is required” on Django 1.4

I have an error message on Django 1.4:

dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 1; 2 is required

It happened when I tried using a template tag like: {% for v in values %}:

dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 1; 2 is required

It happens too when I try to access on a hstore queryset:

ValueError: dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 1; 2 is required

The code is:

tmp = Item.objects.where(HE("kv").contains({'key':value}))

if tmp.count() > 0:
            
    item_id = tmp[0].id,

I’m just trying to access the value. I don’t understand the “update sequence” message. When I use a cursor instead of hstore queryset, the function works. The error comes on template rendering too. I just restarted uwsgi and everything works well, but the error comes back later.
