I'm curious, maybe someone knows this who has actually seen the code behind the scenes, but is this actually true? When Django says "Creating tables ... Creating table polls_poll", does that mean it's already connected to the database and working on it or is it a message that's produced before actually connecting?
John, do you have a way of finding out for sure if your mysql database is being connected to and a database is being created by django? Did you actually look in the database and verify that this is the case? On Fri, Sep 2, 2011 at 12:46 PM, John Boudreau <johnhboudr...@gmail.com>wrote: > Yes I have.
