The Earth turned (good 'ol Earth)...
It's strange though - the manage.py commands all work for me, and I
remember someone else having this problem and it not being resolved.
My setup is as follows:
/myproject
/myapp
/models
__init__.py
foo.py
bar.py
In __init__.py, I have:
----------
from foo import Foo, SomeThingElse
from bar import Bar, AnotherSomething
# a few more, but no __all__ line
----------
The only thing I can see there is the (rather nasty) relative imports
instead of absolute imports. I suspect it might be something bizarre
to do with imports e.g. I might have happened to import something
inside my model files which accidentally fixes it. Also, it would be
good to check Python versions (I'm using 2.4).
I don't have time to debug this at the moment (maybe Friday). Debugging
it might be slightly difficult -- it seems to be sensitive to
environment, so debugging with 'print' will probably be the best
option, rather than trying to use a debugger.
Hopefully this isn't a blocker -- your other code that uses models can
import from myproject.myapp.models, rather than
myproject.myapp.models.foo, so reorganising into multiple files later
won't require any changes to other code.
