How do I solve a traceback when runing manage.py commands?

Time:10-16

I am pretty new to Django and I was just following along witht the tutorial. I was making a project from https://github.com/justdjango/getting-started-with-django, and after I added users and a superuser, I started to get a Traceback like this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Dell\Desktop\prog\programa\lib\site-packages\django\contrib\auth\__init__.py", line 160, in get_user_model
    return django_apps.get_model(settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL, require_ready=False)
  File "C:\Users\Dell\Desktop\prog\programa\lib\site-packages\django\apps\registry.py", line 204, in get_model    
    app_label, model_name = app_label.split('.')
ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

CodePudding user response:

You forgot to specify the model name in the AUTH_USER_MODEL setting. If you defined a model User in the leads app, you thus set this with:

# settings.py

#           app name ↓
AUTH_USER_MODEL = 'leads.User'
#              model name ↑
