I recently switched from django-social-auth to python-social-auth, but it has clearly damage my migrations system. any time I try to migrate changes I got this one :

django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: relation "social_auth_code" does not exist
The problem being that it only happens in the production version of my app and that for some other reasons, I had to delete my migrations file in the past. Doesn't make it easy to investigate. Anyway, it perfectly work now with my development app but I can't figure out what can be the problem in production, I tried all the "faking migrations" tricks in the world and nothing seems to work.
the only place in the web were I can find such an error is there but I never used South, so the first answer is not working for me. Directly digging into the migrations table and sending raw SQL instructions could be the solution but since it is in my production version, I don't feel confortable with tinkering the db ( I got thousands of registered users, there data and all..). In short, I'm in deep sh*t :). Also, I don't know which command to use to directly access the migration table in the db...
Any solution that keeps my data safe is more than welcome :))
