Login not working about chiefonboarding HOT 14 CLOSED

Awesome, good to hear! No worries - happy to help. I will update the docs to make it a bit clearer.

I had to user email instead of username to reset password

def reset_password(mail, password):
    try:
        user = get_user_model().objects.get(email=mail)
    except:
        return "User could not be found"
    user.set_password(password)
    user.save()
    return "Password has been changed successfully"

Generally, a 400 error means that Django doesn't recognize the ALLOWED_HOSTS. Can you check if the ALLOWED_HOST variable is set to your URL in the Django environment variables? That's in back/back/.env.

Allowed host value is '*' in back/back/.env @GDay

Oh wait, I think I misread your first message. Sorry. The login part loads, but you just cannot login, is that correct?

A 400 error in that case means that your username and password are not correct. Please note that the username (which needs to be an email address) and password are both case-sensitive. Also make sure that you didn't add a space after your username.

Email address and password both are correct created another user with same password and same error for that too @GDay

Very strange. Were you able to log in previously or have you never been able to log in? When you make the login request, what does it respond with? When I type in a wrong username and password, it responds with this:

Not been able to login @GDay
My application is externally running on non standard SSL port 6443

When you make the login request, what does it respond with? Rightmouseclick on the screen -> inspect element -> open the network tab -> make the login request and then click on 'response'. Does it give the same error that I showed in the screenshot?

Okay, so yeah, your username and password are probably not correct. Let's try this, just to be sure:

When you have SSH access, do this:

docker-compose run web python3 manage.py shell

Then do this:

from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model
list(get_user_model().objects.all().values_list('email', flat=True))

That should give you a list with users that are in the system right now. Then do this:

def reset_password(u, password):
    try:
        user = get_user_model().objects.get(username=u)
    except:
        return "User could not be found"
    user.set_password(password)
    user.save()
    return "Password has been changed successfully"

That adds a function that we can use to change the password.

Up next, we will change the password. Do the following, but change username with any of the values that are shown in the list and then password with something super easy. Avoid using special characters in this case. We just want to get logging in working right now. You should change it once you are logged in to something that is more complicated.

reset_password(username, password)

By the way, you might want to remove the screenshot as it shows your domain name.

This function code doesn't allowing me to change password @GDay

I think I see where it went wrong. So.. when creating a user, it says on the page to do

User.objects.create_admin("<first name>", "<last name>", "<email>", "<password>")

You probably included the < >. That's not correct. Here is an actual example of adding a new user:

User.objects.create_admin("Stan", "Doe", "[email protected]", "Somethingsupersecret")

So please remove your users:

get_user_model().objects.all().delete()

and add a new user again but then don't use < and >.

Makes sense?
