Comment:

I've been able to reproduce the problem as described in comment:4. I've also verified that this is independent of whether the (main) models use the default table name -- the behavior is the same when changing from non-default to default (as in comment:4), from default to non-default, or between two different non-default names.

Marking as a release blocker as well -- this is, IMO, as important as #23629.

  • Ticket #23630 – Description

    initial v5  
    1 `AlterModelTable` only renames a model's table, but doesn't rename corresponding tables created for m2m fields.
     1According to https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields/#ref-manytomany, when a m2m field uses an automatic (implicit) through model, the through model's table is named by combining the containing model's table-name and the field name. Consequently, if a model contains such m2m fields and its table name is changed by a migration, the m2m field's tables should also be renamed.

     3This doesn't happen (see comment:4 and comment:5 for details), leading to broken models.
