Re: problem with syncdb and MyQSL

I had the same problem with those un-commented, so I create an app polls (per the tutorial) and commented those out to see if it made a difference and it didn't.

In the tutorial is says,

"For the minimalists

Like we said above, the default applications are included for the common case, but not everybody needs them. If you don't need any or all of them, feel free to comment-out or delete the appropriate line(s) from INSTALLED_APPSbefore running syncdb. The syncdb command will only create tables for apps in INSTALLED_APPS."

I'm looking at this portion:

INSTALLED_APPS = (

   #'django.contrib.auth',

   #'django.contrib.contenttypes',

   #'django.contrib.sessions',

   #'django.contrib.sites',

   #'django.contrib.messages',

   #'django.contrib.staticfiles',

   'polls'

   # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:

   # 'django.contrib.admin',

   # Uncomment the next line to enable admin documentation:

   # 'django.contrib.admindocs',

)

Why did you comment those apps out?  Everything above 'polls' should not be commented out.
