  • Ticket #25304 – Description

    initial v7  
    1 When creating a new project, you can sometimes forget to run `manage.py migrate` before creating the initial superuser (especially if you don't execute `runserver` before, which display a warning about migrations not applied). The resulting error make sense, it can't access to auth_user, since it does not exist yet:
    2 
    3 
    4 {{{
    5 $ django-admin.py startproject sample
    6 $ cd sample/ && python manage.py createsuperuser
    7 Traceback (most recent call last):
    8   File "manage.py", line 10, in <module>
    9     execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)
    10 [...]
    11   File "/vagrant/django/django/contrib/auth/management/commands/createsuperuser.py", line 85, in handle
    12     default_username = get_default_username()
    13   File "/vagrant/django/django/contrib/auth/management/__init__.py", line 189, in get_default_username
    14     auth_app.User._default_manager.get(username=default_username)
    15 [...]
    16   File "/vagrant/django/django/db/backends/sqlite3/base.py", line 323, in execute
    17     return Database.Cursor.execute(self, query, params)
    18 django.db.utils.OperationalError: no such table: auth_user
    19 }}}
    20 
    21 ... but with a little try/except, it could be nicer and give a more meaningful information:
    22 
    23 {{{
    24 $ python manage.py createsuperuser
    25 CommandError: You must execute `manage.py migrate` once before creating a super user
    26 }}}
    27 
    28 I have a patch ready (as I said, it just a try/except, see attachment) but, if accepted, it would need unit tests to be complete.
