Django after migration UndefinedColumn error in production

Hi everyone,

I have a website in production. I have an app, with a model. It contained a markdown_file attribute:

markdown_file=models.FileField(upload_to='/media/')

But since the number of file is limited, I decided to make it a markdown_filename attribute with a choices selection box:

markdown_filename=models.CharField(max_length=30,null=True,blank=True,choices=MENU_MARKDOWN_FILE_CHOICES)

Therefore, I modified this model and made migrations locally. I pushed the code in production and run:

python manage.py migrate

After I checked with showmigrations and sqlmigrate, that the modification I made were there. Then, I checked in the database, that the fields were correctly modified. But, I still get this error, when trying to access the website:

The markdown_file field has been modified and renamed as markdown_filename. It has been correctly specified in the migrations. The modification is effective in the database. I tested locally (it works fine locally), to make sure, I don't have anymore code calling markdown_file attribute. I also tried clearing the migrations history and the database, to rebuilt it as new, but, the problem is still there. I can't see why, this former attributes is still queried, though the migrations went OK, without any error.
