New description:
The code from the migration is as follows:
{{{#!python
migrations.AlterField(
model_name='studygroup',
name='time',
field=models.TimeField(),
),
}}}
The field used to be a models.CharField()
The error follows:
{{{
django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: column "time" cannot be cast
automatically to type time without time zone
HINT: Specify a USING expression to perform the conversion
}}}
I can manually fix this using SQL:
{{{
ALTER TABLE "studygroups_studygroup" ALTER COLUMN "time" TYPE time USING
"time"::time;
}}}
I don't have code with the problem isolated, but this project shows the
problem when configured to use postgres. http://github.com/p2pu/knight-
app/.
