I have a type of user that is logged in to the site in a way externally (SAML2-module for apache) to django (newest newforms-admin branch). This external login-process leaves a token in the environment-variables: while the token is in the envvars, the user is logged in. (I hope to write a SAML2 module in pure python later this year...) I have written an auth-backend to pick up and process this token, that part works fine. The problem lies, however, in triggering the authentication from the django side (and build a django-native User-object if necesary.) I cannot test the auth-backend with runserver since the token is built dynamically each time by apache, so I'm using mod_wsgi (mod_python was just too frustrating!).
Now, my test-view calls authenticate() and then login() but I always wind up with a 500 error. Even with loglevel set to debug, the error-message/traceback in the apache error.log isn't very helpful. Reproduced below, with the SSL-noise and most of the apache-noise removed (the stuff after "referer:" cut to make the lines shorter, line 2 is uncut): [info] Subsequent (No.2) HTTPS request received for child 9 (server anonymized.com:443) [info] mod_wsgi (pid=21355, process='', application='anonymized.com|'): Loading WSGI script '/home/python/django.wsgi'., referer: https://idp.samlexample.com/amserver/SSORedirect/metaAlias/idp?ReqID=_D1B2D3FF6936D432B62D916AB48DDB33 [error] mod_wsgi (pid=21355): Exception occurred processing WSGI script '/home/python/django.wsgi'., referer: [error] Traceback (most recent call last):, referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/core/handlers/wsgi.py", line 209, in __call__, referer: [error] response = middleware_method(request, response), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/sessions/middleware.py", line 37, in process_response, referer: [error] request.session.save(), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/sessions/backends/db.py", line 42, in save, referer: [error] session_key = self.session_key,, referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/sessions/backends/base.py", line 109, in _get_session_key, referer: [error] self._session_key = self._get_new_session_key(), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/sessions/backends/base.py", line 101, in _get_new_session_key, referer: [error] if not self.exists(session_key):, referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/contrib/sessions/backends/db.py", line 35, in exists, referer: [error] Session.objects.get(session_key=session_key), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/db/models/manager.py", line 69, in get, referer: [error] return self.get_query_set().get(*args, **kwargs), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 261, in get, referer: [error] obj_list = list(clone), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 114, in __iter__, referer: [error] return iter(self._get_data()), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 486, in _get_data, referer: [error] self._result_cache = list(self.iterator()), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 189, in iterator, referer: [error] cursor.execute("SELECT " + (self._distinct and "DISTINCT " or "") + ",".join(select) + sql, params), referer: [error] File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/db/backends/util.py", line 18, in execute, referer: [error] return self.cursor.execute(sql, params), referer: [error] ProgrammingError: current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block, referer: [error] , referer: [info] Connection closed to child 9 with standard shutdown (server anonymized.com:443) (Yep. the second to last line was just a comma + referer). Anyone seen this before? Where do I even start to look? I'll also be needing to read an auth-token from a cookie later on, again never going via a django-controlled login-page.
