Django 1.2 CSRF verification failed

17/02/2010

Are you updating an old Django  project to use Django 1.2, and getting this error message when you try to login to the Django admin page?

403 Forbidden

CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.
Help

Reason given for failure:

CSRF cookie not set.

Then you need to add  ‘django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware’, and  ‘django.middleware.csrf.CsrfResponseMiddleware’ your settings.py file. Mine looks like this:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
‘django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware’,
‘django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware’,
‘django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware’,
‘django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware’,
‘django.middleware.csrf.CsrfResponseMiddleware’,
)

Thanks to the Django docs http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/csrf/#how-to-use-it

Find the path of a Python module

19/06/2009

The builtin inspect module makes it easy to find out information about the modules you are loading. Just ‘import inspect’ and use inspect.getfile

Python 2.6.2 (r262:71605, Apr 14 2009, 22:40:02) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information.
>>> import inspect
>>> import random
>>> inspect.getfile(random)
‘c:\\Python26\\lib\\random.pyc’
