I'm trying to run

python manage.py syncdb

but i'm getting this error:

There is no South database module 'south.db.sqlite3'

This is my settings.py

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
        'NAME': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db.sqlite3'),
    }
}

SOUTH_DATABASE_ADAPTERS = {
    'default': 'south.db.sqlite3'
}

  • what version of django are u using ?, because there are some changes happened from django 1.7 in migrations and we need to make some changes to remove south dependency – Shiva Krishna Bavandla Apr 29 '15 at 08:49

    I'm using django 1.8. Django doesn't need south anymore to update models? – Filipe Ferminiano Apr 29 '15 at 11:49

You may be able to address this by specifically installing Django 1.6 with pip install django==1.6.

You may also have luck if you add 

SOUTH_DATABASE_ADAPTERS = {
    'default': 'south.db.sqlite3'
}

If that don't work may be your answer can be here : http://answerhub.com/qa/questions/28185/how-do-i-get-syncdb-to-work-im-getting-there-is-no.html

    Sorry this post is just wrong. In fact the problem is your django version. If you use south you need Django 1.6 . – Maurin Johan Jun 30 '15 at 13:42
