Now the basic app was built a long time ago and is based upon Django 1.7.1. Now I want to update it's version to the newest Django version i.e. Django 1.10. I know a lot of changes have happened since then but still I went forward and updated django version using pip and virtual environment. After that on running the makemigrations command I am getting an error which says that a particular table does not exist. While if I do the same thing in django 1.7 it works.
