Inlines are for objects that have connected objects which are not
directly related. Your contact model is directly related to address
because it has an "address" field. If the relationship was via a
"contact" field on the address model, then you'd need an inline.
In your example Django assumes the address model has a foreign key
relating to contact and it tries to set that foreign key to the
address pk, but it's not there so it errors.
My suggest for you is to just get rid of the inline all together. It
should automatically create a little widget with a green plus sign for
creating a new address object. If it's a no-popup inline-esque widget
you're after, then there may be another way to do that but I don't
know how.
