So, I have created a django app here: http://fpaste.org/bkFf/ without using django-admin.

I want the model that I have created in models.py (http://fpaste.org/i1Vd/) to automatically create the table in the database, as specified in settings.py (http://fpaste.org/GBz0/).

I run the command django-admin syncdb –settings=settings.py, which gives me the following: http://fpaste.org/tgvK/ – but no tables are created (because it should say created table X after Creating tables….)

As I didn’t create it using django-admin.py, I have no ‘project’ – so I have no application to add to an INSTALLED_APPS variable of settings.py.

Ultimately, my question it – how can I get my models to initialise the tables in the database, without needing to use django-admin (other than using the syncdb flag).

Thanks in advance

    This makes no sense at all. Projects have nothing to do with INSTALLED_APPS. You have a settings.py, and you have a models.py. Put the name of the module containing models.py into INSTALLED_APPS, and things will work.
