I did the above.

I did all of the above. Since I only plan on one datebase - excluding 
the system db's - I'm dumping everything into the public schema.

I'm still getting the same migration error.

At this point, I'm confused about a few things. Does the postgresql 
server and my archivedb reside globally or are they inside my archivedb 
virtual environment. I think globally.

To get pgAdmin3 to work, I  have to have it set so that it logs in as 
gary ( no choice with this) and set group to root. Then in application > 
advanced options set run as different user to root. This assumes that 
you are using a KDE4 desktop and have these option by right clicking the 
icons.

pgAdmin3 data:
     Server Group > Server(1) > archivedb
                                                     |_ Host name - 
127.0.0.1
                                                     |_ username - archive
                                                     |_ connected - no
Archivedb requires a password to go deeper and takes the xxxxxx password 
that is in the django settings.py file. This opens up access to 
archivedb and lists archivedb > Schema(1) > public > tables(10). At this 
point I found that all  of the sequences and all of the tables are owned 
by root. This is probably the root (no pun intended) cause. Now what do 
I do about it. I'm not sure how this came about so don't know how to fix it.

In the OS I have a postgres user in the passwd file and in the group 
file have the following:
     gary:x:1000:root,backuppc,sudo,postgres,users
     root:x:0:backuppc,gary,staff,postgres,users
     postgres:x:117:root,gary

Normally, I don't have to worry too much about security because my two 
user network resides behind a verizon router firewall. I don't have much 
in the way of sensitive data either. This project may be different. So 
maybe I need to tighten things up a bit.

Thanks for your help
