This is an instance of the AlreadyRegistered exception rearing its
head in the contrib.auth section, something I have been banging my
head against since I originally rewrote the auth code for a personal
project a few months ago. Here is the ticket and a patch that fixes
the problem without quite knowing what that problem is:
http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/6718
A solution to this has been talked about and today I started writing a
post to the Django Devs asking where things were on that, but decided
that I would wait a few more weeks before I start nagging.
Personally I register all my admin when the urls are originally loaded
by executing this script at the end of my master urls.py:
from django.conf import settings
for a in settings.INSTALLED_APPS:
try:
__import__(a+'.admin')
except ImportError:
pass
In auth make sure to remove the last line of the models.py. This
avoids all these really vague AlreadyRegistered errors that you get
with apps that have somewhat circular imports.
Hope that helps,
Michael
