django no such table:

Updated answer for Django migrations without south plugin:

Like T.T suggested in his answer, my previous answer was for south migration plugin, when Django hasn't any schema migration features. Now (works in Django 1.9+):

Outdated for south migrations plugin

As I can see you done it all in wrong order, to fix it up your should complete this checklist (I assume you can't delete sqlite3 database file to start over):

  1. Grab any SQLite GUI tool (i.e. http://sqliteadmin.orbmu2k.de/)
  2. Change your model definition to match database definition (best approach is to comment new fields)
  3. Delete migrations folder in your model
  4. Delete rows in south_migrationhistory table where app_name match your application name (probably homework)
  5. Invoke: ./manage.py schemamigration <app_name> --initial
  6. Create tables by ./manage.py migrate <app_name> --fake (--fake will skip SQL execute because table already exists in your database)
  7. Make changes to your app's model
  8. Invoke ./manage.py schemamigration <app_name> --auto
  9. Then apply changes to database: ./manage.py migrate <app_name>

Steps 7,8,9 repeat whenever your model needs any changes.


You can try this!

python manage.py migrate --run-syncdb

I have the same problem with Django 1.9 and 1.10. This code works!
