I am making an app of login form but when I am running my app and click on login button the following error will occur
Forbidden (403) CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.
the code of view.py is as:
from django.template import loader
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from registration.models import Registration
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.template import RequestContext
from django.shortcuts import redirect
def view_login(request,registration_id):
t = loader.get_template('registration/login.html')
try:
registration=Registration.objects.get(pk=registration_id)
except Registration.DoesNotExist:
return render_to_response("login.html",{"registration_id":registration_id})
def home(request,registration_id):
if request.method == "POST":
username = request.POST.get('user_name')
password = request.POST.get('password')
user = authenticate(username=username, password=password)
if user is not None:
if user.is_active:
login(request, user)
# success
return render('registration/main_page.html',{'registration_id':registration_id},context_instance=RequestContext(user))
else:
#user was not active
return redirect('q/',context_instance=RequestContext(user))
else:
# not a valid user
return redirect('q/',context_instance=RequestContext(user))
else:
# URL was accessed directly
return redirect('q/',context_instance=RequestContext(user))
You need to add {% csrf_token %}
in your form
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/csrf/
like that :
<form>
{% csrf_token %}
<anything_else>
</form>
Also, you have to use RequestContext(request) everytime you use render_to_response
:
return render_to_response("login.html",
{"registration_id":registration_id},
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
And you have to import authenticate and login :
from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login
