django - Another South "table does not exist" issue: none of the previously posted solutions working -


i trying make app using django , using south handle migrations. after define app's models.py, include south in "installed_apps" in settings.py. sync database. when validate database, 0 errors. execute following commands on command prompt:

c:\users\abagaria\desktop\integrateid\website>python manage.py schemamigration w ebsite.integrate --initial creating migrations directory @ 'c:\users\abagaria\desktop\integrateid\website\ website\integrate\migrations'... creating __init__.py in 'c:\users\abagaria\desktop\integrateid\website\website\i ntegrate\migrations'...  + added model integrate.publisher  + added model integrate.author  + added model integrate.book  + added m2m table authors on integrate.book created 0001_initial.py. can apply migration with: ./manage.py migr ate integrate  c:\users\abagaria\desktop\integrateid\website>python manage.py migrate website.i ntegrate running migrations integrate:  - migrating forwards 0001_initial.  > integrate:0001_initial fatal error - following sql query failed: create table "integrate_publisher"  ("id" integer not null primary key, "name" varchar(30) not null, "address" varc har(50) not null, "city" varchar(60) not null, "state_province" varchar(30) not null, "country" varchar(50) not null, "website" varchar(200) not null) error was: table "integrate_publisher" exists  ! error found during real run of migration! aborting.   ! since have database not support running  ! schema-altering statements in transactions, have had  ! leave in interim state between migrations.  ! *might* able recover with:   = drop table "integrate_publisher"; []    = drop table "integrate_author"; []    = drop table "integrate_book"; []    = drop table "integrate_book_authors"; []   ! south developers regret has happened, ,  ! gently persuade consider  ! easier-to-deal-with dbms (one supports ddl transactions)  ! note: error caused migration fail further up. error in migration: integrate:0001_initial databaseerror: table "integrate_publisher" exists 

i know lot of people have faced similar problems while using south, in case, make mistake of executing "--initial" command more once-- thereby causing south make more 1 __initial file in migrations directory. in case, south thinks table exists when make first migration!

i have tried:

  • deleting migrations directory
  • deleting ghost migrations
  • making "fake" migration
  • and running actual migration

can please tell me how fix problem , can start defining models again?

if have tables in database, not use --initial, instead need convert_to_south command. delete directory "migrations", tables database , run following commands:

python manage.py syncdb python manage.py convert_to_south appname python manage.py syncdb --migrate
