Hi all,

as adviced to use "South" to do something 'better', I have installed it and tried to follow the appropriate tutorial here:

http://south.aeracode.org/docs/tutorial/part1.html

However, the first command "./manage.py schemamigration southtut --initial" resulted in the following error:

  Unknown command: 'schemamigration'

I guess I need to update some environment settings? To use a different manage.py? To restart everything from scratch? I am sorry for all those very beginner questions regarding django, but I am a very beginner, trying to follow the tutorial, which just don't wok for me.


Any advice is greatly appreciated.


Alex

Hi Alex,

It looks like south was not added to the INSTALLED_APPS list in your settings.py

Hi,

I added the following line in the section of INSTALLED_APPS of my settings.py:

     'south',

then I ran "python manage.py syncdb" giving this error:

  Error: No module named adminsouth


Any ideas I have done wrong again?

Alex

You're missing a comma at the end of the line before 'south', which presumably ends in 'admin'.
