Its worse than that he's dead Jim! You have far too many things called login: > from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login .. > def login(request): .. > login = request.POST['login'] .. > login(request, user) Change your import line to avoid collisions: from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login as django_login Change your variable named login (since it is a username, perhaps 'username' is appropriate.)
