I'm guessing that for some reason the classes in your app/models.py are not set up correctly, are you sure you inherit from models.Model in your class(es).
Example: from django.db import models class MyModel(models.Model): rather instead of : class MyModel(): If it doesn't inherit models.Model Django will not recognize it as being a model.
