django.db.migrations.exceptions.InconsistentMigrationHistory

Question

When I run python manage.py migrate on my Django project, I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 22, in <module>
execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)
File "/home/hari/project/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-     packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 363, in execute_from_command_line

connection.alias,
django.db.migrations.exceptions.InconsistentMigrationHistory: Migration admin.0001_initial is applied before its dependency account.0001_initial on database 'default'.

I have a user model like below:

class User(AbstractUser):
    place = models.CharField(max_length=64, null=True, blank=True)
    address = models.CharField(max_length=128, null=True, blank=True)

How can I solve this problem?

Since you are using a custom User model, you can first comment out

INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
#'django.contrib.admin',
...
]

in your Installed_Apps settings. Then run

python manage.py migrate.

When done uncomment

'django.contrib.admin'
