[SQLObject] how to test possible with sqlmeta fromDatabase?

[Stewart M. <ste...@gm...>]

I've discovered a peculiar behaviour in my web app, having to do with
sqlmeta class and fromDatabase =3D True

All in well in my app when I defined all of 7 my tables using
SQLObject class instances, e.g.
119  class Admin(SQLObject):
120 =09    """this corresponds to the 'admin' table in MySQL"""
121 =09    _connection =3D conn
122 =09    #id         =3D IntCol()
123 =09    pageviews   =3D IntCol(default =3D 1)

Recently I decided that instead of explicitly creating these objects,
I should let SQLObject do the work of determining each table object's
attributes by having it inspect the MySQL database.  So I altered my
Admin definition to the following:

class Admin(SQLObject):
    class sqlmeta:
        fromDatabase =3D True
    _connection =3D conn

When I do this, all of my database objects from my 7 tables are
successfully created, with one sole exception. In the Admin table, the
pageviews attribute is not created.  And yet obviously the field
exists in the database:

mysql> select * from admin where id=3D1;
+----+-----------+
| id | pageviews |
+----+-----------+
|  1 |      1055 |
+----+-----------+

Here's the failure in SQLObject:
>>> from objects import Admin
>>> rec =3D Admin.get(1)
 1/QueryOne:  SELECT NULL FROM admin WHERE id =3D 1
>>> rec
<Admin 1 >
>>> rec.pageviews
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: 'Admin' object has no attribute 'pageviews'


Where can I look in the code to find where the attribute creation is
failing?   In which module are the objects created?

I could just go back to defining the objects explicitly, I know, but
I'd like to try to solve this problem, and to know whether it's in my
code or in SQLObject.

Addendum:
Here's the full error listing from my browser:
Unrecoverable error in the server.
