Python social auth redirect to LOGIN_ERROR

[m-misseri]

Hello,
I'm using a custom model:

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import BaseUserManager, AbstractBaseUser, PermissionsMixin


GENDER_CHOICES = (
    ('M', 'Male'),
    ('F', 'Female'),
)

REGISTRATION_TYPE = (
    ('1', 'Normal'),
    ('2', 'Facebook'),
    ('3', 'Twitter')
)


class UserManager(BaseUserManager):

    def create_user(self, email, password, **kwargs):
        user = self.model(
            email=self.normalize_email(email),
            is_active=True,
            **kwargs
        )
        user.set_password(password)
        user.save(using=self._db)
        return user

    def create_superuser(self, email, password, **kwargs):
        user = self.model(
            email=email,
            is_staff=True,
            is_superuser=True,
            is_active=True,
            **kwargs
        )
        user.set_password(password)
        user.save(using=self._db)
        return user


class User(AbstractBaseUser, PermissionsMixin):

    objects = UserManager()
    USERNAME_FIELD = 'email'

    username = models.CharField(max_length=32, null=True, blank=True)
    email = models.EmailField(unique=True)
    is_active = models.BooleanField(default=False)
    is_staff = models.BooleanField(default=False)

    is_moderator = models.BooleanField(default=True)
    gender = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=GENDER_CHOICES, null=True, blank=True)
    registration_type = models.CharField(max_length=1, choices=REGISTRATION_TYPE, null=True, blank=True)

    @property
    def facebook_uid(self):
        return self.social_auth.get(provider='facebook').uid

I'm getting error while I'm trying to logging with Facebook.
Simply it redirects to SOCIAL_AUTH_LOGIN_ERROR_URL = '/login-error/'

Any way to get a detailed error?

Thanks.

Sadly not because Django eats the TypeErrors generated by any auth backend. In your case the issue is that your create_user() method requires a password parameter which python-social-auth doesn't generate or sends to your method.

You have two options:

1. Make it optional (which should be OK since that's a benefit of social-authentication, no passwords to remember but one)
2. Add a pipeline function that fills the password into the details dict before the user is created.
