AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'commit_on_success'

Question

I'm trying to use Django-nested-inlines application but it raises error. Here is a simple code:

MODELS.PY

class Language_Quiz(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=40)
    language = models.OneToOneField(sfl_models.Language)


class Question(models.Model):
    language_quiz = models.ForeignKey(Language_Quiz)
    text = models.TextField()

class Answer(models.Model):
    question = models.ForeignKey(Question,related_name='answers')
    text = models.TextField()
    correct = models.BooleanField()

ADMIN.PY

from django.contrib import admin
import models
from nested_inlines.admin import NestedModelAdmin, NestedTabularInline

class AnswerInline(NestedTabularInline):
    model = models.Answer

class QuestionInline(NestedTabularInline):
    model = models.Question

class LanguageQuizAdmin(NestedModelAdmin):
    inlines = [QuestionInline]



admin.site.register(models.Language_Quiz,LanguageQuizAdmin)
admin.site.register(models.Answer)
admin.site.register(models.Question)

But when I run server or try to make migrations, the error is raised. I have no idea where is the problem. Where is the problem?

Answer 1

As Kapil Sachdev and karthikr commented, the problem is with compatibility. Django-nested-inlines has probably some issues working with Django 1.8+.

In my case, the solution was very simple. Download using pip Django-nested-inline (without 's' at the end of the 'inline') and just change import. I didn't even have to change the code.
