This is a common Django issue. Here's how to troubleshoot:
Check app is in INSTALLED_APPS
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'your_app', # Make sure your app is listed
]Specify app name explicitly
# Run with app name
python manage.py makemigrations your_appCheck for migration conflicts
# Show migration status
python manage.py showmigrations
# Fake apply if needed
python manage.py migrate --fake your_app
