Re: cannot login to admin site using admin credentials
You *might* need to drop all the auth_xxx tables, syncdb, and try again.
Just a thought, since you've already broken the schema. But you might
want to capture a dump of the database before you do stuff like this.

Re: cannot login to admin site using admin credentials
I tried deleting auth_user in order to force manage.py to create a new
one and see what happens (just in case there was some problem with the
database table)
I gave a manage.py syncdb (after deleting auth_user) and it created
the table. It also asked me to create a new superuser. I gave the
details and this is what happened.
(hope the following give a clue of what is going on)
http://dpaste.com/hold/397353/
This is my settings.py
http://dpaste.com/hold/397354/
and this is my CustomUserModel implementation

Re: cannot login to admin site using admin credentials
Try running 'python manage.py createsuperuser' on your production
server to create a new superuser account. You should have full
privileges to log in to the admin and make changes using this account.

cannot login to admin site using admin credentials
Hi,
it seems that my problem is a bit complicated. I have tried much but
to no avail. So, please help me!
Some time ago I migrated to postgresql from mysql. I don't know if I
did something wrong. Anyway, my webapp works "almost" flawlessly.
Since then I never needed to login using admin rights (either using
the admin panel or my web site). Some weeks ago I tried and I noticed
that I can't login (to both admin site and web page) using admin
credentials.
I have tried dozens of various tricks but I still can't login.
I tried adding user.set_password() to my views.py in order to replace
admin password with a new simpler one ('123') but nothing. I even
registered a new user from my web page and changed its fields directly
in the DB (is_staff, is_active, is_superuser) to 'True'. This let me
login to the admin site but gave me no permission to change anything.
I even tried to create various admin users with the help of django
shell but none of them gives me a login. Interestingly whenever I do
something to change admin password, I always see a different hashed
password value in my DB. This means that all my approaches succeed in
changing the admin password. However I can't login.
Normal users work fine. Problem appears only when the user is an
administrator.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
