I just had the same problem on a test version of my apps. I'm using MYSQL. The field is missing and it isn't being autocreated because Migrations=False in my db.py model, I have
auth.define_tables(migrate=False) Using fake_migrate True and then trying to migrate to reset doesn't work either. I get Dupe table message then. What is the definition of this field? It seems to be created by code in tools.py - but what's the MySQL field definition - I'll create manually. I expect to have the same problem in another 20 or so MySQL DBs. My guess is it's a MySQL specific issue. I have update DB defs manually (using scripts) for two years as it's too much hassle to do it any other way in a large complex DB. Paul G.
