That is exactly the problem. No exception is thrown. But I guess it
didn't pass the validation because it wasn't redirecting to another
page. Which is funny because all the required field in
django.contrib.auth.models.User object is filled in. Am I doing a good
practice anyway for doing registration using this
django.contrib.auth.models.User object?
