django gets a 404 page when I try to access django-registration

Question

Hello and thank you in advance,

When I installed django-profiles and django-registration. I believe I followed a tutorial correctly on how to configure them:

http://agiliq.com/books/djenofdjango/chapter5.html#reusable-apps

Now when I try to access website.com/accounts I get a 404 page:

Using the URLconf defined in acme_p.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:

^$
^accounts/
^admin/doc/
^admin/

The current URL, accounts, didn't match any of these.

My urls files look like this:

#acme_p urls - Django Project

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()

urlpatterns = patterns('',

    url(r'^$', include('user_prof.urls')),

    # Examples:
    # url(r'^$', 'acme_p.views.home', name='home'),
    # url(r'^acme_p/', include('acme_p.foo.urls')),

    # Uncomment the admin/doc line below to enable admin documentation:
    url(r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls')),

    # Uncomment the next line to enable the admin:
    url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)

user_prof urls.py - Django App one level below project mentioned above

from django.conf.urls.defaults import *

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    (r'^login/$', 'auth.views.login_user'),
    (r'^accounts/', include('registration.urls')),
#    (r'^accounts/', include('registration.backends.default.urls')),

)

Thank you for you help.

Answer 1

There is no website.com/account in the configuration, there is only website.com/account/(more) where (more) has the rest of the url that is given to the django-registration module. You could try website.com/account/login/ for example to check if the django-registration module is working.

Also you should just put those on the root urls.py file.

Answer 2

(r'^accounts/', include('registration.urls')), should be in the root urls.py not the app urls.py
