Syncdb Ignores Imported Models

I have a project, structured like this: project/ __init__.py db/ models/ __init__.py article.py project.py ontology/ __i

Solution 1:

You need to add app_label = 'db' to your models' Meta inner classes.

Solution 2:

According to South (syncdb) docs: http://south.aeracode.org/docs/tutorial/part1.html It will create tables only for those models that are in INSTALLED_APPS section in settings.py file. If model is being used, but its changed and you don't want to lose any data - use migrations: http://south.aeracode.org/docs/tutorial/part1.html#the-first-migration

UPDATE: As far as i looked Django by design wont find the models within different directories: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/14007 you might want to use app_label

UPDATE: app_label docs: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/options/#app-label

Solution 3:

Looks like your db module is not included in the INSTALLED_APPS list in your settings. It is not enough information for other variants.
