Actually it doesn't. I think you just did a reset/sqlall instead of sync/initdb: # cat settings.py | grep DATABASE_E DATABASE_ENGINE = "sqlite3" # python manage.py syncdb <snip> Creating table testapp_message Creating table testapp_avatar Installing custom SQL for testapp.Message model Failed to install custom SQL for testapp.Message model: no such index: testapp_message_avatar_id Installing index testapp.Message model <snip> Installing json fixture 'initial_data' from '<snip>/fixtures'. As you most likely can tell from above, sql/message.sql contains a "drop index ..." operation.
