I edited the mode.py file for a custom registration form. After running

make update-db

I get

Your models have changes that are not yet reflected in a migration, and so won't be applied. Run 'manage.py makemigrations' to make new migrations, and then re-run 'manage.py migrate' to apply them.

as an error message. So following this I try running

python manage.py makemigrations

and get this as an error

Traceback (most recent call last): File "./manage.py", line 20, in <module> from safe_lxml import defuse_xml_libs ImportError: No module named safe_lxml

Tried looking on web no luck so far. Please Help.

nope. After running the suggested command the update happens but the expected change is not seen.
Thanks for replying tho.

finally, I found the solution:
try to run these commands:

cd /edx/app/edxapp/edx-platform
./manage.py lms makemigrations reg_extension_form
./manage.py lms migrate reg_extension_form
sudo /edx/bin/supervisorctl restart lms

note: replace reg_extension_form with your folder name that have customization

@Hrithik_Raj, have you tried installing safe_lxml manually on your devstack? You can do it like this:

make lms-shell
pip install -e /edx/app/edxapp/edx-platform/common/lib/safe_lxml/

Then you can run the makemigrations again.
