Error migrating Django 1.6 to Django 1.10 with python-social-auth

I have an application here that was made using version 1.6 of Django, and I am trying to migrate to version 1.10.
It turns out I'm going through some problems, and I'm not sure if it's because of differences between versions. When I run 'python manage.py runserver', the following error occurs:

socialconnections.SocialInfluence.social_auth: (fields.E300) Field defines a relation with model 'default.UserSocialAuth', which is either not installed, or is abstract.

The default.UserSocialAuth class is set to INSTALLED_APPS (social.apps.django_app.default). Has anyone ever gone through something like that and have any idea why this is happening? The code snippet that gives error is as follows:

social_auth = models.OneToOneField(
    'default.UserSocialAuth',
    related_name='social_influence')

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • I followed the @alasdair user's recommendation of gradually upgrading, and the project worked on version 1.7 of Django.
