Its ubuntu/Debian. And i believe you’ve already given an answer. However, I need help to migrate my project’s python virtualenv to python3 versions – SowingFiber Nov 10 '19 at 05:04

For migrate you need to type this command `python3 .\manage.py makemigrations` and hit enter then you need to write this command `python3 .\manage.py migrate` – Hamza Lachi Nov 10 '19 at 05:08

You should create a new virtual environment and reinstall the dependencies. – Klaus D. Nov 10 '19 at 05:09

@KlausD Sorry! if he need to change virtualenv he should need to make new virtualenv – Hamza Lachi Nov 10 '19 at 05:12

@KlausD. Really? Is there no other way to migrate the virtual environment? Or can I create a new virtual environment and use my existing project under it? – SowingFiber Nov 10 '19 at 05:12

@SowingFiber yes you need to create new virtualenv – Hamza Lachi Nov 10 '19 at 05:14

3You can use your project with as many virtual environments as you like. But there is no path to migrate a virtual environment. If you have a proper `requirements.txt` that should be done in no time. – Klaus D. Nov 10 '19 at 05:16

@KlausD. Thanks! I created a new env and now it works without issues. Please post an answer and I’ll accept that :) – SowingFiber Nov 10 '19 at 05:21
