getting error changing database from sqlite to postgreSQL in Django

Question

I have been trying to dump and load data from sqlite to PostgreSQL referring to this page.
However, I got following error when I tried to load data which is dumped by following code.

python manage.py dumpdata --natural-foreign --natural-primary -e contenttypes -e auth.Permission > database.json

I tried to dump data removing natural argument as below. But got same error.

python manage.py dumpdata -e contenttypes -e auth.Permission > database.json

Could anyone tell me what should I do to solve this problem?

(webEP) C:\Users\obakatsu\Documents\Python_scripts\Django\DjangoEP>python manage.py loaddata database.json

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Can you please disable locale language settings or translate the error message to english? Thanks — Antoine Pinsard

From Google Translate the error message is:

Relation "auth _ user" does not exist

So it seems that you are querying an entity (table, view, function, ...) that just not exist at this moment. Maybe you have to create a table auth_user before you execute your code or maybe the whole database schema?

this same happen to me , first take a backup for your database in .json file and the change the settings.py to your desired datatbase and then run commands

python manage.py migrate

this gradually works for me ! so try once .

python manage.py migrate would help if you didn't do it after changing database.
