Getting middleware errors in integrating django cms with existing django project

Question

I have a working django project which contains around ten apps. I am integrating django cms in my app, so I can edit the pages content. I have followed the procedure of the documentation but I am getting middleware errors when I am doing "python manage cms check". The errors are in this format:

 cms.middleware.user.CurrentUserMiddleware middleware must be in MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES [ERROR]

My middlewares are in following order in my settings.py:

MIDDLEWARE = [
  'cms.middleware.utils.ApphookReloadMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
  'cms.middleware.user.CurrentUserMiddleware',
  'cms.middleware.page.CurrentPageMiddleware',
  'cms.middleware.toolbar.ToolbarMiddleware',
  'cms.middleware.language.LanguageCookieMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
]

Any help would be appreciated.

In django 1.10 old style middlware has been deprecated. Seems like new style middleware was added only in django-cms 3.4.1. Try to update django-cms.
