#24264 closed Bug (fixed)

foreign key constraint error migrating integer pk to CharField

Description

Discovered while trying to update djangoproject.com to 1.8a1. See https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com/pull/373 for steps to reproduce.

$ python manage.py test fundraising
...
foreign key constraint "fundrais_donor_id_50d7dcbcff28bd90_fk_fundraising_djangohero_id" cannot be implemented
DETAIL:  Key columns "donor_id" and "id" are of incompatible types: integer and character varying.

Bisected to bbbed99f6260a8b3e65cb990e49721b1ce4a441b

Here's a test for tests/schema/tests.py which is at least a start (it fails on 1.7.x too, so it's probably not quite right):

def test_change_int_pk_to_char(self):
    with connection.schema_editor() as editor:
        editor.create_model(Author)
        editor.create_model(Book)
    new_field = CharField(max_length=15, primary_key=True)
    new_field.set_attributes_from_name("id")
    new_field.model = Author
    with connection.schema_editor() as editor:
        editor.alter_field(Author, Author._meta.get_field("id"), new_field)

Although I haven't tried to reproduce this particular issue, I wouldn't be surprised if this is related to #24241

A brief discussion on IRC mentioned this traceback:

and this SQL

The interesting part is the difference between the constraint names.

comment:2 by Markus Holtermann, 10 years ago

I looked into the issue: it is neither related nor unrelated to the bisected commit mentioned above. The problem is that in django.db.backends.base.schema._alter_field() new_field.model._meta.related_objects for DjangoHero is an empty list despite Donation having a FK.

The related_objects_graph after the first for loop looks like:

{<Options for DjangoHero>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: donor>],
 <Options for Site>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: site>,
                      <django.db.models.fields.related.ManyToManyField: sites>],
 <Options for FlatPage>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: flatpage>],
 <Options for DocumentRelease>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: release>],
 <Options for Category>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: category>,
                          <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: category>,
                          <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: category>,
                          <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: category>],
 <Options for ContentType>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: content_type>],
 <Options for CCLA>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: ccla>],
 <Options for ICLA>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: icla>],
 <Options for Group>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: group>,
                       <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: group>,
                       <django.db.models.fields.related.ManyToManyField: groups>],
 <Options for Permission>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: permission>,
                            <django.db.models.fields.related.ManyToManyField: user_permissions>],
 <Options for User>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: user>,
                      <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: user>,
                      <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: user>,
                      <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: user>],
 <Options for Permission>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: permission>,
                            <django.db.models.fields.related.ManyToManyField: permissions>],
 <Options for FeedType>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: feed_type>],
 <Options for Feed>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: feed>],
 <Options for User>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.OneToOneField: user>,
                      <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: user>,
                      <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: owner>],
 <Options for ContentType>: [<django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: content_type>,
                             <django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey: content_type>]}

However, due to state changes during migrations self.model (new_field.model._meta.model) is not the same instance as the DjangoHero model from all_models()

comment:3 by Markus Holtermann, 10 years ago

This patch on stable/1.8.x (edbf6de7536f7a6c1e5df019a5e1947d2c9dadf8) fixes the problem for me, but is more a band-aid than a valid fix:

  • django/db/models/options.py

    diff --git a/django/db/models/options.py b/django/db/models/options.py
    index fa97265..e64990d 100644
    a b class Options(object):  
    687687            for f in fields_with_relations:
    688688                if not isinstance(f.rel.to, six.string_types):
    689689                    # Set options_instance -> field
    690                     related_objects_graph[f.rel.to._meta].append(f)
     690                    opts = f.rel.to._meta
     691                    related_objects_graph[opts.app_label, opts.object_name].append(f)
    691692
    692693        for model in all_models:
    693694            # Set the relation_tree using the internal __dict__. In this way
    class Options(object):  
    695696            # __dict__ takes precedence over a data descriptor (such as
    696697            # @cached_property). This means that the _meta._relation_tree is
    697698            # only called if related_objects is not in __dict__.
    698             related_objects = related_objects_graph[model._meta]
     699            opts = model._meta
     700            related_objects = related_objects_graph[opts.app_label, opts.object_name]
    699701
    700702            # If related_objects are empty, it makes sense to set
    701703            # EMPTY_RELATION_TREE. This will avoid allocating multiple empty

I managed to construct a test_case for this issue.

I made the FK span two apps to make sure it works across apps. Within the same app it boils down to the same problem.

Fixed #24225, #24264, #24282 -- Rewrote model reloading in migration project state

Instead of naively reloading only directly related models (FK, O2O, M2M
relationship) the project state needs to reload their relations as well
as the model changes as well. Furthermore inheriting models (and super
models) need to be reloaded in order to keep inherited fields in sync.

To prevent endless recursive calls an iterative approach is taken.
