I have to face same issue and there are a couple of approaches, but the one I think is the most probable one.

Maybe you are loading views or queries to database but you haven´t granted enough time for Django to migrate the models to DB. That's why the "table doesn't exist".

Make sure you use this sort of initialization in you view's code:

Class RegisterForm(forms.Form):

  def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super(RegisterForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

A second approach is you clean previous migrations, delete the database and start over the migration process.
