What 's wrong with the code? Apologize in advance for long code as newbie don't know where is the problem since different approach accumulated.

Solution

  • Problem solved after adding this script in int.py file , never been thought its need to be edited . Still helpful if someone can tell the reason.

    # _int_.py
default_app_config = 'users.apps.UsersConfig'
