I'm using django and I'm facing a little problem. I would like to use the 'migrate' command with manage.py But when I try I get this error message:

  Unknown command: 'migrate'
  Type 'manage.py help' for usage.

I have south installed (I installed it with pip), but I still can't use this command. I don't know what to do.

Thank you for your help!

You have to include south in INSTALLED_APPS in your settings.py.
