Hi all, I need an authentication system for my website; quite a common need today, isn't it? I have decided to figure out if I can use django.contrib.auth. I have the following problems :
1. start a new project, and just do the minimum: *in settings: - a database - a template path - the django.contrib.admin app *then syncdb *in urls: uncomment the admin urls *add in your template folder, the file requested by the view password_change in contrib.auth.views : - registration/password_change_form.html - this file contains a simple text Problem : trying to access http://<your.site>/admin/password_change will render -- after login -- your template in registration/ password_change_form.html instead of the admin one. I can't find out why. 2. strange things in code : - in contrib.auth there is a UserCreationForm provided, but there seems to be no view for it or for any signup page. - in contrib.auth.views, the login sends no error for authentication failures, and sends the page again silently. I hope I am wrong in all this, due to the fact that I am a new django user. Your help is welcome. Also : instead of contrib.auth, what is generally used for authenticating users?
