django user login error using User authentication()
I have a basic login, sign up html page in my Django project:
The login page redirects to the user_login function in views.py as follows:
<form action="{% url 'user_login' %}" method="POST">. //rest of the code
In urls.py the request is getting forwaded correctly:
.......#beginnning code
path('user_login', views.user_login, name='user_login'),
path('portfolio', views.portfolio, name='portfolio'),
......
In views.py this is my user_login code to authenticate the user and redirect the user to a 'portfolio.html' page if the user credentials are correct.
I have imported User, Login class as follows:
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.shortcuts import render
from .models import Profile
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login
# Create your views here.
def index(request):
return render(request, 'mysite/index.html')
def user_login(request):
if request.method == 'POST':
name_r = request.POST.get('name')
password_r = request.POST.get('password')
user = authenticate(username=name_r, password=password_r)
if user:
login(request, user)
#below line might be incorrect
return HttpResponseRedirect('mysite/portfolio.html')
else:
return render(request, 'mysite/login.html')
#rest of the code for signup which is working perfectly.
Whenever i click on Login page, the login page never loads in the first place, let alone checking whether authentication is taking place or not.
The error occurring is as follows:
I am not sure exactly where the error is occuring and what solution must be applied to it.
Please help Thanks!
