 Code that causes the problem:

 everyone.py:
 class Person(models.Model):
  emplid = models.CharField(max_length=15,primary_key=True)
  ... (other fields deleted)

     class Meta:
         app_label = u'everyone'
         db_tablespace = u'everyone'
         db_table = u'people_names'
         managed = False

 people.py:
 class Person(models.Model):
  emplid = models.CharField(max_length=11, db_column='emplid',
 primary_key=True
 ) ... (other fields deleted)

     class Meta:
         app_label = u'commons'
         db_tablespace = u'people'
         db_table = u'person'

 The 2nd people.Person model is my default db, so #1 is "everyone.Person"
 and #2 is just "Person".

 I tried (view.py):

 try:
     person = everyone.Person.objects.get(pk=emplid)
 except everyone.Person.DoesNotExist: # person not found by "get"
     do some stuff

 django complains in the 'except' : global name 'everyone' is not defined.

 Apparently django does not support multi-database models in the same way
 as the default database. There is a work-around, but this behaviour then
 is inconsistent with default database models. Don't know if this is due to
 model names being the same.
