Django Version: (1, 8, 0, 'final', 0) Issue: I have an existing database, so I integrated it following the instruction in https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/howto/legacy-databases/ to inspectdb and generated models.py. That table does NOT have column 'id', so the generated models.py doesn't have 'id' either. The model is unmanaged (managed = False). But the Django page failed, saying something like 'can not find id column in the table'. Somehow the query added 'id' in the select fields.
Fixed: Modified /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) That works well for my system. I think it makes sense that Django should not add AutoField for unmanaged class. Please confirm and decide whether to patch this into your code base. Thanks.
