Fixtures are not working after Django squashmigrations

I just squashed a lot of migrations in Django 4.0.x. Now when running the migrations I get the following error:

  File "/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.9.10/x64/lib/python3.9/site-packages/Django-4.0.3-py3.9.egg/django/db/migrations/loader.py", line 120, in load_disk

    migration_module = import_module(migration_path)

  File "/opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.9.10/x64/lib/python3.9/importlib/__init__.py", line 127, in import_module
    return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)

                                ^
SyntaxError: invalid decimal literal

The according code lines in the migration file is:

        migrations.RunPython(
            code=general.migrations.0004_initial_general.Migration.load_data,
        ),

I am totally lost here.

As I could find in this link https://stackoverflow.com/a/59813844/17881270 Python identifiers can not start with a number.

Hope that could help you. Rename them in migration table and that directory and your squash. Or maybe you can use getattr function.

Look at the top of your squashed migration file - you should find a comment that reads something like this:

# Functions from the following migrations need manual copying.
# Move them and any dependencies into this file, then update the
# RunPython operations to refer to the local versions:
# general.migrations.0004_initial_general

You should also have seen a notice printed to your console when you generated the migrations, alerting you that manual modification of the generated file is needed.

This is happening because you have defined some custom migration functions in that migration, which Django was not able to migrate automatically. You need to manually copy the load_data function from 0004_initial_general.py into this squashed migration file, and then replace the reference to it in the RunPython call.
