It's not redirecting because the following statement never evaluates to
True:
if accept is not None and accept.is_active:
You are using auth.authenticate (see below) but I don't think that's what
you want in this case. auth is the built in django auth system which your
code isn't using.
accept = auth.authenticate(pin=pin1, serial_no=serial_no1)
It looks like you're instead trying to load a Pin object.
Try this instead:
accept = Pin.objects.get(pin=pin1, serial_no=serial_no1)
Now accept is holding the Pin object (assuming it found one) and you can
check that object for the property is_active
(remember to import Pin).
