This is my first django project and is intended for my own use, but I'll put it on git-hub when it's working.
The database backend is postgresql-9.6.3 and exists in /var/www/htdocs/. When I run 'python3 manage.py migrate' django looks for the database in ~/development/crm_project/crm/ and does not find it there. In settings.py I have defined the engine: DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql', 'NAME': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'crm'), 'USER': 'rshepard', 'PASSWORD': '<redacted>', 'HOST': '', 'PORT': '5432', } } Again, this is for my use and the database with its existing tables lives in the same cluster with all my other databases. And, each table will be a separate app; the models have been translated from sql to django. I'd appreciate suggestions on how to proceed. Rich
