I am fresh to flask and was trying to build a blog on my own, and I ran into an issue with SQLite operation error. I have researched similar problem on Github and Stackoverflow but none of the typical typo or error in old questions happens to me. It would be appreciated and really great if anyone can help me because this problem is like killing me and already cost me two days, I feel really bad.
In the code I have defined the table name which is "users_table" and run "db.create_all()" at the beginning to create the table, but the error keeps occurring with "no such table user_table" each time when a commit happens for updating user info.
This is how I test the SQLite operation:
(under /project) python3 manage.py shell
>>> u = User(email='foo@bar.com', username='foobar', password='player')
>>> db.create_all()
>>> db.session.add(u)
>>> db.session.commit() # with following error message
Traceback (most recent call last):

I have minimized the code into following four sections, which can reoccur the error message:
