Re: problem with syncdb and MyQSL

I'm curious, maybe someone knows this who has actually seen the code behind the scenes, but is this actually true?  When Django says "Creating tables ...           Creating table polls_poll", does that mean it's already connected to the database and working on it or is it a message that's produced before actually connecting?

John, do you have a way of finding out for sure if your mysql database is being connected to and a database is being created by django?  Did you actually look in the database and verify that this is the case?

Yes I have. When I run the syncdb command it starts creating the tables then hangs....

So it is connecting to the MySql DB I created...
