You'll need both the autodiscover and the admin.site.register() lines, not one or the other. I'm not an expert on this, but I got the same error message when I'd registered my models with admin.site, but not used autodiscover. Autodiscover registers all the apps in your INSTALLED_APPS settings, including django.contrib.admin, which is where permissions reside. If you don't use autodiscover (or don't explicitly register the admin models), then the django admin site has no way of verifying who has what permissions (or something to that effect). Short answer: register all your models with admin.site.register(), and use admin.autodiscover() too. Sure hope that solves it, Eric --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
