Django admin only works with python 2

Question

I'm using Django in a virtualenv. The admin page only works in python 2. When i run python3 manage.py runserver i get an error:

AttributeError at /admin/ 'WSGIRequest' object has no attribute 'user'

But when i run python2 manage.py runserver it is all fine. Did install django in my venv as mentioned in: Using Python 3 in virtualenv

Can someone push me to the right direction?

Answer 1

First check the version you're running by typing:

python -V

To get the python 2 version, then

python3 -V 

To get the python3 Version.

If you could post both versions, a screenshot of the full error, as well as the admin.py file in the app's directory it might help us help you.
