未找到“password_reset_confirm”。 'password_reset_confirm' 不是有效的视图 function 或模式名称

Question

I keep getting this error:

NoReverseMatch at /accounts/password_reset/ Reverse for 'password_reset_confirm' not found. 'password_reset_confirm' is not a valid view function or pattern name

The following is my code so far:

from django.conf.urls import url
from . import views
from django.urls import include
from django.contrib.auth import views as auth_views


app_name = 'accounts'

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^login/$', views.login_view, name='login_view'),
    url(r'^register_view/$', views.register_view, name='register_view'),
    url(r'^logout/$', views.logout_view, name="logout_view"),
    url(r'^profile_view/$', views.profile_view, name="profile_view"),
    url(r'password_change/$',auth_views.PasswordChangeView.as_view(template_name='password_change.html',success_url='/accounts/password_change_done')),
    url(r'password_change_done/',auth_views.PasswordChangeDoneView.as_view(template_name='password_change_done.html')),
    url(r'password_reset/$',auth_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(template_name='registration/password_reset_form.html',email_template_name='registration/password_reset_email.html',subject_template_name='registration/password_reset_email.txt',success_url='/accounts/password_reset_done/',from_email='mpho.maleka3@gmail.com')),
    url(r'password_reset_done/',auth_views.PasswordResetDoneView.as_view(template_name='registration/password_reset_done.html')),
    url(r'password_reset_confirm/(?P<uidb64>[0-9A-Za-z_\-]+)/(?P<token>[0-9A-Za-z]{1,13}-[0-9A-Za-z]{1,20})/$',auth_views.PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(template_name='registration/password_reset_confirm.html',success_url='/accounts/password_reset_confirm/'), name='password_reset_confirm'),
    url(r'password_reset_complete/',auth_views.PasswordResetCompleteView.as_view(template_name='registration/password_reset_complete.html')),
]

Answer 1

You need to know that django uses the default template for the email message subject which is (password_reset_email.html) under the name password_reset_confirm , but your are using a namespace, acocunts: password_reset_confirm , all what you need to do is

1. Override the template path using this attr email_template_name

auth_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(
  template_name ='accounts/registration/password_reset.html',
  email_template_name = 'accounts/registration/password_reset_email.html'),

2. Set up your email configurations in settings.py to send your email, without getting a error (Errno 111) connection refused

Answer 2

To get Django to use your app's registration/password_reset_form.html' template, you need to move that app above django.contrib.admin in your INSTALLED_APPS setting.

Note that Django doesn't make it easy to use a namespace with the password reset views. Once you have fixed this NoReverseMatch , you may find you have to fix similar errors. It would probably be easier to move your password reset URL patterns into a urls.py that does not have a namespace.

Answer 3

Instead of writing it like this

reset_password
reset_password_done
reset_password_confirm
reset_password_complete

You need to write it this way

reset_password
password_reset_done
password_reset_confirm
password_reset_complete

it worked for me.
