Description (last modified by Łukasz Rekucki)

I have a multi-database setup:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'wall2',
        'HOST': 'localhost',
        'PORT': '',
    },

    'slave': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'wall2',
        'HOST': 'localhost',
        'PORT': '',
        'TEST_MIRROR': 'default',
    },

    'station': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'station',
        'HOST': 'localhost',
        'PORT': '',
        'TEST_DEPENDENCIES': ['default',]
    },

    'catalog': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'catalog',
        'HOST': 'localhost',
        'PORT': '',
        'TEST_DEPENDENCIES': ['default', 'station']
    },
}

I have 2 routers, one handles the master/slave and one handles the 2 "data" database station and catalog. they run fine on production, but when we try to run our unit tests i get the following stack trace:

    raise errorclass, errorvalue
django.db.utils.IntegrityError: (1062, "Duplicate entry 'tools-station' for key 'app_label'")

after some debugging i've found that the

    def update_contenttypes(app, created_models, verbosity=2, **kwargs):

method looks up the tools-station content type in the station database, doesn't find it, and then tries to write it to the default database, where it already exists.

by simply adding "using('default')" to the two ContentType.objects calls in the above method everything works fine. i'm not sure if all content types are meant to be in the 'default' database, but that seems to be the only way it can work at this point?

i'll attach a simple patch,

Either your database routers allow reading ContentType objects in the 'station' database (which they shouldn't), or they are bypassed somehow.

Could you post the code of your routers?

And, obviously, re-open the ticket - thanks :)

UI/UX: unset

i have added a test for ContentType and the first router returns 'None' and the final router returns slave on calls to db_for_read for ContentType.

comment:5 by Bas Peschier, 13 years ago

Seems like this is not the only ticket about multi-db contenttype problems, could you test whether ticket #16281 solves your problem?

Fixed formatting (please use preview!).

comment:7 by Aymeric Augustin, 13 years ago

I tried and failed to reproduce this bug. We'll need the original reporter's feedback to determine if it's a duplicate of #16281.

While investigating, I stumbled upon another problem and I created #16353.

comment:8 by anonymous, 13 years ago

well, i'm testing with 1.2.5, so i had to edit the patch as follows, but it didnt' work for me:

        #return self.model_class()._default_manager.using(self._state.db).get(**kwargs)
        return self.model_class()._default_manager.using(self.model_class().objects.db).get(**kwargs)

but still got the same error:

django.db.utils.IntegrityError: (1062, "Duplicate entry 'tools-station' for key 'app_label'")

Status: reopenedclosed

If someone can provide a way to reproduce this on 1.3, please reopen the ticket.

Only critical fixes are backported to the 1.2 branch, and this problem is certainly not critical.
