The view accounts.views.register didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead.

[bvalgard]

Hi Max,

Thank you for your youtube videos and making your materials available.

I keep running into a value error. In the Django Tutorial Part 15 I was getting the following issue: "The view accounts.views.register didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead."

I cloned this repository so I could see where I was making the mistake. The same issue occurs in the cloned repository as well.

These are the steps I take to get the error. I make migrations, then run the server. Then I go to the website and click on register, I add in the credentials (username, first name, etc.) then click submit. The website always raises: "ValueError at /account/register/"
"The view accounts.views.register didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead."

I am using windows 10.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Bradon

i have the same problem, can you help me?
i think the problem is in register function, in the views

[ahmedibrahim6]

• there is some error in indentation in the last two lines of register function in views.py
• and there is no url named home in accounts urls so we do the following edit

`

if request.method =='POST':
    form = RegistrationForm(request.POST)
    if form.is_valid():
        form.save()
        username = request.POST.get('username')
        password = request.POST.get('password1')
        user = authenticate(
            request,
            username = username,
            password = password
        )
        login(request, user)
        return redirect(reverse('home:home'))
else:
    form = RegistrationForm()
args = {'form': form}
return render(request, 'accounts/reg_form.html', args)`

I am getting this now too...

It was working fine up until I tried registering recently. Not sure what broke it.

[baxterjfinch]

This was a silly mistake on my part. I copy/pasted from my 'login.html' file.

I forgot to close off my

in both 'login.html' and 'reg_form.html'. The login worked but registering did not. Adding fixed my problem.

I'am getting this error type object 'UserProfile' has no attribute 'objects' when trying to registering new user.When I resend data I get The view accounts.views.register didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead. I don't understand what has gone wrong. Somebody please help me.

@vishnu-chalil try adding ,"objects = models.Manager()" in your UseProfileModel

I also encountered the same problem "The view accounts.views.register didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead" when I hit submit Button. I tried to use the above provided solutions but i got no change. Kindly help me.
Thanks!

Check the indentation levels. remember that a view is always supposed to return a render(request, 'template name')

@Jumaev
`class RegisterView(View):

def post(self, request):
    form = UserCreateForm(request.POST)

    if form.is_valid():
        form.save()
        return redirect(reverse(home))
    return render(request, 'accounts/register.html', {'form': form})

def get(self, request):
    form = UserCreateForm()
    return render(request, 'accounts/register.html', {'form': form})`

@AlinaKozz Thank you so much!!!

because you handled the validated data ... and you did'nt put an else statement to handle the non validated data ... so your view function returns a non object instead of an http response ... the simple solution is to add an else statement ... good luck !!
like
if form.is_valide():
....
return redirect(...)
else:
return render(....)
