ViewDoesNotExist at /accounts/register/ (django-registration-me error)

Question

I am currently working on a project which uses mongoengine and django. I am using django-registration-me to handle user registrations, but I am having problems after submitting the new user registration form.

The error I am receiving is:

"ViewDoesNotExist at /accounts/register/" "Tried settings in module core.views. Error was: 'module' object has no attribute 'settings'"

It sends a verification email out fine though. I am new to django and mongoengine, so any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

The traceback is below.

Answer 1

I guess, you have

import settings

or some such variation in your code.

You should change it to:

from django.conf import settings

and it should work
