I got exactly the same problem, with the nearly the same code.
I used pdb and check that login(request, user) is well called.
But in the next view, in my template i do a {% user.is_authenticated
%},
and it seams that the user is not logged in.
Someone have an idee ? bug or wrong session configuration ?Regards Vincent On Oct 6, 8:09 pm, Robocop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Having looked through the archived posts, i found a similar problem > that had found no > solution:http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_thread/thread/bf05... > > It looks like django is not actually logging my user in, or not > creating a session.
