Django, Can not import urls from django.conf.urls-CodePudding

I am working on django restframework project. I build it and it was working well but then I tried makemigrations and I got following error. Please help me.

I tried makemigrations for my django project but I have got that error and I do not have any idea about this error. Can anybody help me. Please!

CodePudding user response：

the url was removed in Django 4.0 Look at the release notes here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/pl/4.0/releases/4.0/#features-removed-in-4-0

django.conf.urls.url() is removed

CodePudding user response：

As of django-4.0, the url function is removed. Indeed, in the release notes we see:

django.conf.urls.url() is removed.

You thus are using rest_auth which is incompatible with the Django version. The django-rest-auth project [GitHub] still uses the url(…) function in the urls.py [GitHub].

You thus should downgrade Django (to django-3.2) to work with the django-rest-auth, or you should wait until the django-rest-auth makes a release that is compatible with django-4.0.
