That's because HttpResponse expects a string (or read-only buffer) and you've provided it a long int. Django stores all primary keys (like user.id) as long ints. Try converting to a string: return HttpResponse(str(user.id)) > now if i use > uu=User.objects.filter(username='dd') > return HttpResponse(uu.id) #i used email and others also > it shows > Exception Type: AttributeError > Exception Value: 'QuerySet' object has no attribute 'id' And that's failing because uu is a QuerySet, not a User. In this particular case you're probably better off using get() instead of filter(), so that you get access to the User object directly: uu = User.objects.get(username='dd') return HttpResponse(str(uu.id)) Note that get() will throw an error if you have two Users with the same username (but I don't think the User model allows duplicate usernames; this is more something to keep in mind if you wish to use the same syntax elsewhere). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
