Issue: I have an existing database, so the guide in https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/howto/legacy-databases/ to inspect db and created models.py .
That table does NOT have an 'id' column, and the created models.py doesn't have 'id' either, and the class is unmanaged (managed=False). But when I use Django to create page, the system failed, saying the 'id' is not found in the table. Somehow the query included 'id' in the select fields. After a little bit of digging, I changed /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/db/models/options.py: Old: line 284-287: else: auto = AutoField(verbose_name='ID', primary_key=True, auto_created=True) model.add_to_class('id', auto) New: else: if self.managed: auto = AutoField(verbose_name='ID', primary_key=True, auto_created=True) model.add_to_class('id', auto) Then my class will not get into this "AutoField" action to add 'id' in the query. Looks like an apparent bug. This change works well for me. Please check and confirm whether this should be commit into you code base.
