Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/app.py", line 55, in application response = frappe.handler.handle() File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/handler.py", line 19, in handle execute_cmd(cmd) File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/handler.py", line 36, in execute_cmd ret = frappe.call(method, **frappe.form_dict) File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/__init__.py", line 876, in call return fn(*args, **newargs) File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/client.py", line 83, in insert doc = frappe.get_doc(doc).insert() File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/__init__.py", line 578, in get_doc return frappe.model.document.get_doc(arg1, arg2) File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/model/document.py", line 44, in get_doc controller = get_controller(doctype) File "/home/marcin/frappe-bench/apps/frappe/frappe/model/base_document.py", line 41, in get_controller raise ImportError, doctype ImportError: SA Customer

Only when i use name which contains “Customer” I get such an error while adding new record.
Not sure what can I do about it (flush something or delete?) maybe it’s a bug.

Strange but after doing following things it worked:

  • Remove directory from your_app/doctype/doctype_name
  • Remove doctype from the list in gui (which removes from DB)
  • Run bench migrate

Please close this topic.

Hello i know it’s been a while but did you have to recreate the doctype after deleting it and run bench migrate?

try to commit of Deleted Doctype and then use bench migrate.
