I'm trying to install django-registration on my project using this tutorial: http://www.michelepasin.org/blog/2011/01/14/setting-up-django-registration/ but I get this error:

I found some answers here but I was not able to fully understand the solution, could you please explain me how to solve it? thank you.

Solution

  • The download link in that tutorial is to an old version of django-registration, which is not compatible with Django 1.5. You should check out the latest version directly from bitbucket and follow the instructions there.
