Why wont drupal recognize my base table name?

Question

So I have been playing around with the poll module in Drupal8-beta14 and I just upgraded the site to RC1. I am trying to uninstall the poll module now but i get this error everytime

exception 'PDOException' with message 'SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown      [error]
column 'base_table.id' in 'field list'' in
/srv/www/dtadev2/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Database/Statement.php:64

the only place i can find the string "base_table" in the poll module at all is in the @ContentEntityType annotation

 @ContentEntityType(
 *   id = "poll",
 *   label = @Translation("Poll"),
 *   handlers = {
 *     "access" = "\Drupal\poll\PollAccessControlHandler",
 *     "storage" = "Drupal\poll\PollStorage",
 *     "translation" = "Drupal\content_translation\ContentTranslationHandler",
 *     "list_builder" = "Drupal\poll\PollListBuilder",
 *     "view_builder" = "Drupal\poll\PollViewBuilder",
 *     "views_data" = "Drupal\poll\PollViewData",
 *     "form" = {
 *       "default" = "Drupal\poll\Form\PollForm",
 *       "edit" = "Drupal\poll\Form\PollForm",
 *       "delete" = "Drupal\poll\Form\PollDeleteForm",
 *       "delete_vote" = "Drupal\poll\Form\PollVoteDeleteForm",
 *       "delete_items" = "Drupal\poll\Form\PollItemsDeleteForm",
 *     }
 *   },
 *   links = {
 *     "canonical" = "/poll/{poll}",
 *     "edit-form" = "/poll/{poll}/edit",
 *     "delete-form" = "/poll/{poll}/delete"
 *   },
 *   base_table = "poll",
 *   data_table = "poll_field_data",
 *   admin_permission = "administer polls",
 *   field_ui_base_route = "poll.poll_list",
 *   translatable = TRUE,
 *   entity_keys = {
 *     "id" = "id",
 *     "label" = "question",
 *     "uuid" = "uuid",
 *       "category" = "category",
 *     "langcode" = "langcode"
 *   }
 * )

So all I can think of is that for some reason when uninstalling the module Drupal is supposed to use poll but is take base_table instead.

Is this something in RC1 or is there an easy syntax error I am missing?

describe poll shows this

Enable verbose error reporting (if you can't access the UI anymore at all, see sites/example.settings.local.php). Then post the full error here. Also ,when exactly does this happen, on every request or on specific actions only? — Berdir, Oct 21 '15 at 18:55
if i use drush to uninstall the module or i go to any page with involving the poll. so anyting like /admin/content/poll/ breaks it. I have added the entire error. I think this is what you are looking for? — BrandenB171, Oct 21 '15 at 18:59
Can you execute "describe poll;" with drush sql-cli or similar and post the output here ? The error happens as part of the content check, which wants to prevent that you uninstall the poll module if there is data left. But apparently your poll table is messed up and doesn't look like it should. — Berdir, Oct 21 '15 at 19:08
describe poll resutls are posted. ill look into your other link posted. Thanks! — BrandenB171, Oct 21 '15 at 20:42

Whatever the exact reason is, this is another variant here:

Improperly deployed missing entity table breaks module uninstall

Not being able to uninstall a module when storage is messed up.

You could start a patch for that by adding a try/catch around the hasData() call in ContentUninstallValidator and ignoring the problem. No table or messed up table likely also means no data ;)

There might be additional errors after that, where you need similar fixes.

Explanation

The error means that id column is missing in your base table (poll) and it happens during uninstall process where ContentUninstallValidator::validate (part of Entity) determines the reasons a module can not be uninstalled and it fails.

This issue is further explained in the following bug report:

ContentEntityStorage base has a hasData() method that checks if any entities exist at all. This method is called during the uninstall process of a module to warn the user that data will be lost if the module is uninstalled.

When a module has deployment issues and the entity storage table has not been created, the hasData() method will throw an exception, completely blocking the uninstall process. So basically you end up with a broken module, that you cannot uninstall.

This is the code which fails in validate():

if ($module == $entity_type->getProvider() && $entity_type instanceof ContentEntityTypeInterface && $this->entityManager->getStorage($entity_type->id())->hasData()) {
  $reasons[] = $this->t('There is content for the entity type: @entity_type', array('@entity_type' => $entity_type->getLabel()));
}

Workaround

One workaround is to recreate the missing field, truncate table and uninstall the module again, e.g.

drush sqlq 'ALTER TABLE poll ADD COLUMN id INT(11)'
drush sqlq 'TRUNCATE TABLE poll'
drush -y pm-uninstall poll

^{Warning! By truncating you're removing all the data in that table,
so backup it before if required.}

^{Source: SQL Error on redirect uninstall.}
