#26453 closed Cleanup/optimization (wontfix)

SITE_ID should start from 1, not 0

Description

I had a problem with migrations when I set SITE_ID to 0.
In the documentation I read that it should be integer, so I thought 0 would be fine.
I had the following error:
ValueError: The database backend does not accept 0 as a value for AutoField.
I suggest writing in the documentation that it should start from 1. The same problem is in the documentation for django 1.9.

Thanks for the suggestion. This restriction only applies to MySQL, however, and I don't think it's a big enough pitfall to warrant a note in the docs.
