[Fixed]-Adding South to Django project, development & production

My guide says:

1. Install South on server. import south from shell just to make sure you are using the same python env.
2. Add 'south' to INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py.
3. Upload settings.py.
4. Restart server
5. python manage.py syncdb.
6. Upload new app/models.py and app/migrations/ dir.
7. Restart server.
8. python manage.py migrate app --fake 0001
9. python manage.py migrate app

To make sure the south migration table exists,

python manage.py syncdb

and then

python manage.py migrate myproject.myapp --fake 0001
python manage.py migrate myproject.myapp

That’s what’s worked for me. 🙂

No need to do this in Django >= 1.7
