else:

context = {'form':form}
return render_to_response('todo.html', context,    context_instance=RequestContext(request))

Answer 1

you’ve specified exclude = ('user',) in your form. This means that when you try to save the form there is no user_id present which causes the error. You probably want to put this before the save() call: todoss.user = request.user
