1) i can't see in your code where you are creating some kind of session and set some cookies to save auth state between requests. 2) is it login_required from django.contrib.auth? if yes - use login from django.conrib.auth or create your own decorator to check user auth.
anyway - django provides ready for use user auth mechanism and maybe it's better to use it https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/ On Wed, Aug 8, 2012 at 1:37 PM, Jian Chang <[email protected]> wrote: > what's your '@login_required(login_url='/login/')'? > seems like the decorator leads to the redirection. > > 2012/8/8 mapapage <[email protected]> > >> for the login I do (username must be the id field(pk) of an 'owners' >> table and password is a field of the same table): >> >> def login_user(request): >> c = {} >> c.update(csrf(request)) >> state = "" >> >> if request.POST: >> password = request.POST.get('password') >> id = request.POST.get('id') >> try: >> user = Owners.objects.get(id = id) >> if user: >> if user.simple_check_password(password): >> url = reverse('main', kwargs={ 'user_id': user.id }) >> return HttpResponseRedirect(url) >> else: >> state = 'Incorrect username or password' >> else: >> state = 'Incorrect username or password' >> except Exception as e: >> state = 'Incorrect username or password' >> print state >> return render_to_response('index.html', locals(), context_instance= >> RequestContext(request)) >> >> and I also define: >> >> def set_password(self, raw_password): >> self.password = make_password(raw_password) >> >> def check_password(self, raw_password): >> """ >> Returns a boolean of whether the raw_password was correct.
