Django：PasswordResetForm 连接被拒绝

Question

I used PasswordResetForm (code source by Django), but I have this error :

[Errno 111] Connection refused
...
/usr/lib/python2.7/socket.py in create_connection, line 571
...

My form PasswordResetForm : https://docs.djangoproject.com/fr/1.8/_modules/django/contrib/auth/forms/#PasswordResetForm

My view, idem ( https://docs.djangoproject.com/fr/1.8/_modules/django/contrib/auth/views/#password_reset ).

My urls :

url(r'^parameters/password_reset','password_reset',name="password_reset"),
url(r'^parameters/password_reset_done','password_reset_done',name="password_reset_done"),
url(r'^parameters/password_reset_confirm','password_reset_confirm',name="password_reset_confirm"),
url(r'^parameters/password_reset_complete','password_reset_complete',name="password_reset_complete"),

and my settings :

I know this was asked a while ago, but I think the same problem is still relevant. All you need to do is add some email configuration to your settings.py. See the docs . Add all of the following to settings.py:

 EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend' EMAIL_HOST = '<your smtp server>' EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = '<your smtp password>' EMAIL_HOST_USER = '<your smtp user email address>' EMAIL_HOST_PORT = <your smtp port>

If you haven't set up an email service, you can link your gmail account for free. Mandrill (smtp.mandrillapp.com) and Sendgrid are both good python-friendly resources as well.

I also noticed that your setup is spread across forms.py, views.py, urls.py, and settings.py. A more efficient setup can be found here . It automatically configures views.py and urls.py--no need to add anything. Just make sure your forms.py and settings.py are filled out correctly, and you're golden!
