This is a problem related to Innodb and MyISAM. Django uses this latter, while probably your imported DB is an Innodb one. Check here https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/databases/ Search Google for the matter too, you are not the only one experiencing it.
I would suggest getting rid of the new tables you created, switching to InnoDB and migrating everything. Try and let me know.
