I'm trying to install South to an existing app called Blog so that I can modify the model structure. I've based my actions on documentation here: http://south.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorial/part1.html and here: http://south.readthedocs.org/en/latest/convertinganapp.html#converting-an-app
I've installed the South app, and it has been working correctly up to a certain point when it tries to create tables that already exist.
These initial steps seem to work fine
18:50 ~/steps $ python manage.py schemamigration blog --initial
Creating migrations directory at '/home/awwester/steps/../steps/blog/migrations'...
Creating init.py in '/home/awwester/steps/../steps/blog/migrations'...
+ Added model blog.Blog
+ Added model blog.Category
Created 0001_initial.py. You can now apply this migration with: ./manage.py migrate blog
18:50 ~/steps $ python manage.py schemamigration blog --auto
+ Added field active on blog.Blog
Created 0002_auto__add_field_blog_active.py. You can now apply this migration with: ./manage.py migrate blog
Here's where it fails
Running migrations for blog: 19:26 ~/steps $ python manage.py migrate blog - Migrating forwards to 0004_auto__add_field_blog_active.

django.db.utils.DatabaseError: table "blog_blog" already exists
Any ideas how I can get the new field added into the table? Adam
