[Answer]-Tastypie django, missing column

You most likely ran syncdb before adding the user ForeignKey to your Project model, so the user_id column (which represents the ForeignKey) does not exist.

If you’re still developing and don’t care about the data in your database, just remove the database file and run syncdb again. If you do care about the data, look into south for a data migration.

The issue has nothing to do with the API, if you opened the Django admin you’d get the same error.
