Description

The following kind of model where you would like to order objects indirectly using a foreign key results errors like in below.

The model:

class Day(models.Model):
    date        = models.DateField()
    description = models.CharField(maxlength=20)

    class Admin:
        pass
    class Meta:
        ordering = ['date', 'description']

class DayRow(models.Model):
    day = models.ForeignKey(Day)

    class Admin:
        pass
    class Meta:
        ordering = ['day']

class Slot(models.Model):
    day_row = models.ForeignKey(DayRow)
    info    = model.CharField(maxlength=50)
    
    class Admin:
        pass
    class Meta:
        ordering = ['day_row']

The error:

The best way to fix this would be to catch that at the model validator level.

I can reproduce this bug.

I use Python v2.4.4-2 and PostgreSQL v8.1.7-1 with Psycopg2 v2.0.5.1-6 all of it from Debian Etch.
I use Django SVN r4463.
Might it be a problem with the django psycopg2 database component?
