Question

I’ve got a Django app with South installed. I added an app (“guardian”) in my INSTALLED_APPS. Now when I run python manage.py syncdb I get:

$ python manage.py syncdb
Syncing...
Creating tables ...
Installing custom SQL ...
Installing indexes ...
No fixtures found.

Synced:
 > django.contrib.auth
 > django.contrib.contenttypes
 > django.contrib.sessions
 > django.contrib.sites
 > django.contrib.admin
 > south

Not synced (use migrations):
 - myapp
 - guardian

and trying the migration returns:

Nothing seems to have changed.

Is there any way to use the original syncdb, not the South one?

Thanks

Answer 1

Are you running manage.py migrate guardian?

“Nothing seems to have changed” looks like an output of running manage.py schemamigration, which wouldn’t create any tables to begin with…
