Question

My project is “fable”. So I created this:

/home/myuser/fable/backends/EmailOrUsernameModelBackend.py

And also __init__.py inside there.

Inside this file, I pasted this snipplet in there: http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1001/

Now, I change add this to my settings.py:

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
    'fable.backends.EmailOrUsernameModelBackend.EmailOrUsernameModelBackend',
    'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend'
)

But when I try to login, it says:

Exception Type: ImproperlyConfigured at /login
Exception Value: Error importing authentication backend fable.backends.EmailOrUsernameModelBackend: "No module named backends.EmailOrUsernameModelBackend"

Answer 1

Solved. Simple spelling mistake in my file.
