“no such column” after adding a field to the model

Question

environment DJANGO VERSION 1.9 Python 2.7.6

I added a field (scores) to a model class in models.py like this

from django.db import models
from django         


        

Answer 1

Well the problem is NOT with your makemigrations command or models.py. It is because you have probably imported your class in the model (your database in this case) in on of your views.py files and the problem is with that. If you read the all of the error message then you can understand that easily.

Just try commenting that importing part and run your python.manage.py makemigrations and python manage.py migrate commands then you can uncomment your import in your views.py file

Hope this was useful for others as well
