Original ticket follows. —JKM''' Revision 8185: Everything works fine. 8186 and current revision (8219) won't work unless I comment out admin.autodiscover(). There actually was a bug with one of my admin.py's, but now that's been fixed - the problem remains. I can import all my admin.py's from the shell just fine. In fact, I even tried removing all my admin.py files. But admin.autodiscover() still kills everything.
