If your project is not deployed to production yet, the easiest solution is to delete the whole existing database (sqlite db file or postgres/mysql database) and try to apply the migrations.

But if the project is already in the production, you would need to be careful with that. I would suggest

1. Make a backup of your data

2. Delete the tables of admin, auth and django_migration apps.

3. Apply the migrations

4. Insert the old users into your new custom user table.
