sqlite database not migrated to postgresql when pushed to heroku server (django)

Question

I pushed my app to heroku, but it seems that the database did not migrate (the database has 0 tables and 0 entries). How can I migrate it correctly?

Answer 1

If you're using the Starter-tier databases, there is a delay in populating those stats. You can see if there are tables immediately if you psql in:

$ heroku pg:psql -a app_name
psql=> \dt
[...tables...] 

Also, please see my answer here on using postgres locally instead of sqlite3 (recommended):
