South migration error during installation
Using: OSX 10.8, Django 1.4.2, South 0.7.6 with MySQL (engine default is InnoDB).
Keep getting South migration error. I first ran manage.py syncdb (successfully) , but "python manage.py migrate askbot" raised the following error:
FATAL ERROR - The following SQL query failed: ALTER TABLE `askbot_thread` ADD CONSTRAINT `accepted_answer_id_refs_id_3a6a76b2d567ecbb` FOREIGN KEY (`accepted_answer_id`) REFERENCES `askbot_post` (`id`);
The error was: (1005, "Can't create table 'askbot.#sql-8c8b_1f' (errno: 121)")
! Error found during real run of migration! Aborting.
! Since you have a database that does not support running
! schema-altering statements in transactions, we have had
! to leave it in an interim state between migrations.
! You *might* be able to recover with: = CREATE TABLE `comment` (`comment` varchar(2048) NOT NULL, `offensive_flag_count` integer NOT NULL, `object_id` integer UNSIGNED NOT NULL, `content_type_id` integer NOT NULL, `user_id` integer NOT NULL, `score` integer NOT NULL, `html` varchar(2048) NOT NULL, `added_at` datetime NOT NULL, `id` integer AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY); []

- no dry run output for alter_column() due to dynamic DDL, sorry
- no dry run output for delete_foreign_key() due to dynamic DDL, sorry
= ALTER TABLE `askbot_thread` DROP COLUMN `accepted_answer_id` CASCADE; []
! The South developers regret this has happened, and would
! like to gently persuade you to consider a slightly
! easier-to-deal-with DBMS (one that supports DDL transactions)
! NOTE: The error which caused the migration to fail is further up.

Comments
We have an issue with InnoDB, there is a fork with a fix, I will look into merging it this week. Please try to use Postgres if you can.
What is the name of the forked project?
Possibly this commit: https://github.com/joschabach/icontology/commit/95d9a139325a1a621e0b279391ded1d01693d456 or somewhere on that branch, I have not tested though. Strongly recommend postgresql.
@Evgeny But if used postgresql, can i use sphinx to support chinese full text search?
@Evgeny your solution works fine. Thanks.
