Description

This is related to #24892 and uses the same code (I have attached sample project there)

Copy-pasted description of problem:

To cut long story short: in a small application I had models using domain level primary keys, that were strings, I wanted to introduce synthetic primary keys.

Here are models before migration (I have updated int_pk to be unique).

class Foo(models.Model):

  string_pk = models.CharField(
    max_length=10,
    primary_key= True
  )

  int_pk = models.IntegerField(
    null=True
  )

  class Meta:

    db_table = "FOO"

Models after migration:

class Foo(models.Model):

  string_pk = models.CharField(
    max_length=10,
    unique = True
  )

  int_pk = models.AutoField(
    primary_key=True
  )

  class Meta:

    db_table = "FOO"

Generated migration:

class Migration(migrations.Migration):

    dependencies = [
        ('testapp', '0002_foo_int_pk'),
    ]

    operations = [
        migrations.AlterField(
            model_name='foo',
            name='int_pk',
            field=models.AutoField(primary_key=True, serialize=False),
        ),
        migrations.AlterField(
            model_name='foo',
            name='string_pk',
            field=models.CharField(max_length=10, unique=True),
        ),
    ]

I have changed field string_pk from primary_key=True to unique=True, generated migration (when I manually fixed error from #24892) didn't create unique constraint (previously there were a primary key constraint, that was dropped but there were no unique key generated).

This can be (worked-around) by generating another migration with two migrations.AlterField one that sets unique=False and another that sets unique=True.
