I would use HttpresponseRedirect instead of render_to_response after login.
Try this:
def login(request):
news_list = New.objects.all().order_by('-date')
if request.method == 'POST':
username = request.POST['username']
password = request.POST['password']
user = auth.authenticate(username=username, password=password)
if user is not None:
if user.is_active:
auth.login(request,user)
return HttpResponseRedirect('main.html', locals())
else:
# add some message to inform user, that he's not active
# or redirect to somekind of error page
return render_to_response('registration.html', locals())
else:
return render_to_response('registration.html', locals())
I'm using almost similar view in my project and there was no problem in 0.96
as well as in 1.0
