django 1.7 migrate gets error “table already exists”

If you have the table created in the database, you can run

python manage.py migrate --fake <appname>

Mark migrations as run without actually running them

Or if you want to avoid some actions in your migration, you can edit the migration file under the app/migrations directory and comment the operations you don’t want to do in the migrate execution.

or python manage.py help migrate
