PASSWORD_HASHERS setting in Django
django, python
Solution
It means there is a plain text `'sahar'` stored as the password of the account of a user who tries to log in. Update the password of the user in Admin or in `manage.py shell`
user = User.objects.get(username=username)
# use set_password method
user.set_password('sahar')
user.save()
# INSTEAD OF
user.password = 'sahar'
user.save()
Also check your other views to correct the `user.password = '...'` and `User.objects.create(password='...')` usages.
Problem
i have an error when ever i try to login by any User error Unknown password hashing algorithm 'sahar'. Did you specify it in the PASSWORD_HASHERS setting? Views.Py ``` def Login(request): state = "Please log in below..." username = password = '' if request.method == 'POST': username = request.POST['username'] password = request.POST['password'] user = authenticate(username=username, password=password) if user is not None: if user.is_active: login(request, user) return HttpResponseRedirect('/profile/') else: return render_to_response('auth.html',RequestContext(request)) else: return render_to_response('auth.html',RequestContext(request)) else: return render_to_response('auth.html',RequestContext(request) ```
