django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: relation already exists on OenBSD vps

Question

I am getting this error. I tried with migrate --fake default but it doesn't seems to be working. attached is output of "python manage.py migrate" My set up is Django 1.6 + celery3.1.12 + postgresql + gunicorn on OneBSD VPS.

Running migrations for users:


- Migrating forwards to 0007_auto__del_field_profile_weekly_digest__del_field_profile_daily_digest_.
 > users:0001_initial
FATAL ERROR - The following SQL query failed: CREATE TABLE "users_user" ("id" serial NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, "password" varchar(128) NOT NULL, "last_login" timestamp with time zone NOT NULL, "email" varchar(255) NOT NULL UNIQUE, "name" varchar(255) NOT NULL, "is_active" boolean NOT NULL, "is_admin" boolean NOT NULL, "is_staff" boolean NOT NULL, "type" integer NOT NULL, "status" integer NOT NULL, "new_messages" integer NOT NULL, "badges" integer NOT NULL, "score" integer NOT NULL, "full_score" integer NOT NULL, "flair" varchar(15) NOT NULL, "site_id" integer NULL)
The error was: relation "users_user" already exists
