Unless you are using the default primary key (implicit id = models.AutoField(), which is INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT)? You might then need to set primary_key in Meta to prevent the default PK from being created. See the model-api docs. (All this assumes you are using the magic-removal branch, because you did say 0.92.) -- The Pythonic Principle: Python works the way it does because if it didn't, it wouldn't be Python. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
