AttributeError: 'unicode' object has no attribute 'app_label'

and i tried to convert DB and all tables and fields collation to utf8_general_ci but nothing changed

Answer 1

The error says you’ve got a string instead of Model Meta options. It’s not related to collation probably.

What change have you made before the error appeared?
