#33273: queryset.update SQL does not receive fields from base model of inheriting model. -----------------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: James Miller | Owner: nobody Type: Uncategorized | Status: new Component: Uncategorized | Version: 3.2 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -----------------------------------------+------------------------ In an admin function, I receive a queryset with the class that was registered with the admin decorator, @admin.register(ForumComment), where the queryset is populated with ForumComments selected to approve, where they have been reported for moderation.
In my approve_comment function, I use queryset.update(moderation=None). The ForumComment model extends from a Comment model in another app. When the code 'queryset.update(moderation=None) runs I get the following error: ``` *** django.db.utils.OperationalError: (1054, "Unknown column 'django_posts_and_comments_comment.date_created' in 'order clause'" ``` It seems that the queryset.update method is unable to scope the model 'ForumComment' to correctly include the methods/properties of the superclass 'Comment'. I have just returned to the code base after a while away, and I think that it worked, and the error is new. I have solved the error by iterating over the records of the queryset and saving each one individually using update_fields for efficiency, but the queryset.update should work. I have asked this question at the forum where I have included code etc. https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/unknown-field-in-order-clause-when- using-model-inheritance/10444/2 In sum, should it not be the case that queryset.update is capable of generating SQL that will correctly include the fields of a superclass model? -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/33273> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
