Django Upgrade : relation "django_content type" does not exist


I upgraded my django version from 1.7.5 to 1.9.2. All migration ran but when i run tests i get below error.

django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: relation "django_content_type" does not exist

I checked the database and the django_content_type model exists. I am using PostgreSQL.

I am only getting this error on PostgreSQL not in Sqlite3..

Solution

  • I used uuid field and JSON field in old Django version but in new version these fields are default provided by django models. So i replaced these fields with django default fields and created migrations again....

    Now Its working without any issue..
