You were going well till this point. Loaddata doesn't take input from stdin - it loads files that are specified on the command line. Your database is empty because you have specified no fixtures to load. The sequence needs to go something like: $ ./manage.py dumpdata > mydata.json $ ./manage.py flush ... follow the prompts $ ./manage.py loaddata mydata.json > The output of dumpdata can be used as input for loaddata. This is correct, but in a different way than you have interpreted. The output of dumpdata is in a format that loaddata can use - but that doesn't mean it accepts input from stdin.
