Hi there. Im doing my first login form for an existing Django application.
The thing is that when I give the correct usr/pswd from the
web, django.contrib.auth.authenticate returns systematically None.
However, when I try the same thing from the Django shell it works. I'm
working with a "john" user created from the Django admin application, using
the "password chang" form. Here's the code, and the Django command line
output.
My application and me will be eternally thankful for your help.
++COMMAND LINE
python manage.py shell
>>> from django.contrib.auth import authenticate
>>> user = authenticate(username='john', password='johnpassword')
>>> print user
john
++VIEWS.PY
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
def index(request):
return render_to_response('unoporuno/index.html', None,
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
def login_cidesal(request):
usuario = request.POST['usuario']
clave = request.POST['clave']
user = authenticate(user=usuario, password=clave)
return HttpResponse("logging in user:" + usuario + " with password:" +
clave + " and authenticate result=" + str(user))
