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

Question

I am attempting to set up a website on cookeicutter, I created a new app called "bots" and added a class called Trade within models that lists 2 parameters, "titles" and "units". After migrating and running the server, when I open the admin panel and click on the "+ add" button within the panel to create a trade (see picture). The Django Webpage returns this error:

django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: relation "bot_trade" does not exist
LINE 1: ...."id", "bots_unit"."sell", "bots_unit"."buy" FROM "bots_unit...

Additonal Info: Running my django within a docker with postgreSQL

Answer 1

You probably haven't created any migrations for your bot app. You need to specify the app name to create the initial migrations:

./manage.py makemigrations bot

Then run migrate to run the migration and create the missing table:

./manage migrate

When you run showmigrations, you can see that Django thinks that it has already applied the initial migration for your bots app. This could be because you ran --fake for that app.

bots
 [X] 0001_initial

You can tell Django to mark the migrations as unapplied, then rerun the migration with:

manage.py migrate --fake bots zero
manage.py migrate bots

This should work, as long as no tables from the bots app have been created yet. If only some of the tables have been created, then fixing up the database will be much trickier.
