4930	foreign key constraint not set in database for FKs to another application's models	James <james_027@…>	Philippe Raoult	"I am very new to django, I am creating a model with a field of models.ForeignKey(User) #django.contrib.auth.models import User. When I look at the database my table has no foreign key define. Another example is the django.contrib.admin.models.LogEntry model it has user =  models.ForeignKey(User) which is also from django.contrib.auth.models.user.

When the relationship is within the same namespace (am I using the right term, pls correct me) the manage.py syncdb create the tables without a problem if all the tables are create on the same time, but if the tables weren't created the same time it also fail to create the foreign keys.

Is this a bug of django or a shortcomings of database driver?

Thanks
