Django Setup: No Such Table auth_user - django

Every time we set up our Django project in a new environment and try to initiate the server (migrate or runserver) the error message django.db.utils.OperationalError: no such table: auth_user shows (full error message below).
I am assuming this comes from using the user model as a foreign key in some of our models (example seen below) and as a new system is set up (no database created yet) Django tries to create the table for our custom model and fails because of the foreign key -the user table- as it wasn't created yet.
# Model for projects (example)
class Projekt(models.Model):
project_name = models.CharField(max_length=100, unique=True)
project_manager = models.ForeignKey(User, related_name="Manager", on_delete=models.DO_NOTHING)
My question is: is there any best practice on what to do to prevent this? For now, we are just copying the database from our running systems for every new developer we are getting, which works for now, but is not valid for open source distribution of the software.
I tried different stuff like this and this) already, but this didn't work out. I encountered this problem in each and every of my Django projects.

django.db.utils.OperationalError: no such table: auth_user

Add migrations folder to git. This contains the information needed to create a new database correctly.

You should add your migrations to version control and deploy them along with the rest of your code base.
If you have a lot of migrations which are now superfluous, you can squash them.

I maybe late to answering this question but same happened to me what i did was, deleted pycache files from my app and related migration files and then also deleted the database file in my case sqlite file

I was using PyCharm and had the working directory set incorrectly in the debug config. Needs to point to the directory with manage.py in it. Probably not the issue for creyD, but might help others.

general = General.objects.get(is_active=True)
queryset = model.objects.filter(field=site_general.field)
i deleted all migration files in all apps (without __init__ ) and also .pyc files
is there any idea for this problem?
(edit i added Traceback)
All the non-method attributes of a class get evaluated /executed during the declaration or definition of the class. Hence when the interpreter reaches your class SampleViewSet it tries to execute the line general = General.objects.get(is_active=True) but of course your database doesn't exist yet and since calling .get implies a database query you get an error.
In general any statement that might cause a database query should be either run by the app configs ready method, by some middleware / context processor, or by the view in a request. Looking at the code it doesn't look like you use general anywhere, so you can simply remove it:
class SampleViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
queryset = model.objects.filter(field=site_general.field)
You might say model.objects.filter(...) would also cause a query, but .filter returns a QuerySet and queryset's are lazy and hence evaluated only when needed, so that will not cause any error.

Django: manage.py makemigrations --> django.db.utils.OperationalError: no such table

What i did:
- deleted the complete db.
- deleted the content of the migrations folder
then i did:
python manage.py makemigrations.
I get the above error message.
I also did:
- Pulled the github repo freshly
- created venv
- activated the venv
- run python manage.py migrate
it looks like as if the migrate command checks the complete sourcefiles for references to the non existing tables. I am out of ideas here.

The problem is identified here in your stacktrace:
File "/home/harald/Projects/newshows/src/newshows/tables.py", line 13, in Meta
settings = Setting.objects.get(id=1)
This means that you're running Setting.objects.get(id=1) somewhere in your code as the application is compiling. This will occur before the making of actual migrations in the makemigrations command. Refactoring your code to do that call lazily is what will fix your problem.
Problem was, that i tried to access a queryset which wasn't there yet. I refactored the whole code to use environment variables for the settings.

Django Migration Problem with URL Configuration

When we started our Django project we created migrations and migrated, but now, when we want to alter the data model and run makemigrations we get a large error message (see below). After tracing back the message I discovered that when I comment the path('', include('quizarchiv.urls')), lie while running migrations everything is fine. So I guess that I got two questions:
Why does this workaround work (at least for creating the migrations)?
How do we adjust our project to work with migrations again?
This is the part of our models.py (it's rather long):
class questioncategory(models.Model):
cat_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
cat_name = models.CharField(max_length=255, unique=True)
class question(models.Model):
q_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
q_title = models.CharField(max_length=255, unique=True)
q_question = models.CharField(max_length=1000)
f_kat = models.ForeignKey(questioncategory, on_delete=models.PROTECT)

django.db.utils.OperationalError: no such table: questioncategory
The problem is not your url include. The problem is that in your ErstelleFrage form you are performing a query at class level, which is executed on import; it's just that the include is the thing that is causing that form to be imported.
You should never do queries in field or form definitions like this. In this particular case, you should be using ModelChoiceField with a queryset rather than ChoiceField with an explicitly selected set of choices.

No such table upon initial Django migration

Back story:
I'm creating a quiz app. I started by wanting to use Django (v=2.1.4) with Mongo via the Django package. Everything worked until it didn't so I decided to just drop Django and mongo entirely and go back to SQLite. I only mention it in case it is related, but I don't think it is.
I made a copy of the project then deleted the original. I then created a new project with the same name and all the same apps. This created a bunch of new folders with blank files. I moved the copies of the original over to these folders (except the migration files) and replaced the blank files with the same name.
I changed the mysite/settings.py file back to default to read:
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
'NAME': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'hoquidb'),
}
}
To my knowledge, this creates a fresh project ready for it's initial migration and it will use sqlite3.
The problem:
So I tried to do the initial migration and got a cryptic error message:

django.db.utils.OperationalError: no such table: realestate_sentence_beginning
For some reason you're importing the test file quiz_maker.tests.generate_questions into your views. That file has code at the top level which tries to save an element into the database. But since that code is executed at import time, the migration won't have had a chance to run yet, and the table is not created.
You should not be doing either of those things: don't import test files into your actual code, and even in test files don't perform db-modifying actions at module level, they should be done inside functions that are called when necessary.

Django Migrations does not apply changes in models

Whenever I add/remove/modify anything in models.py and the following commands the project does not make those changes to the database models.
python manage.py makemigrations
OR
python manage.py makemigrations
OR
Python manage.py migrate
All the above command throws the same error as below:
"
return self.cursor.execute(sql, params)
django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: column

Tried deleting the migrate folder (without deleting , running fake migrations , running zero migrations but nothing helped.
Please advise.
Models.py file is saved and includes:
class studentmaster(models.Model):
studentid = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True)
studentname = models.CharField(max_length=30)
isstaff= models.BooleanField(default=False)

Your AnnForm is making a query in the class definition, which is executed at import time before the migrations can run.
You shouldn't write forms like this anyway. Use a ModelChoiceField with a queryset.
