    I am using social login in my Django app. So, I have added additional backends in my settings.py file.

    AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [
    'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
    'social_core.backends.open_id.OpenIdAuth',
    'social_core.backends.google.GoogleOpenId',
    'social_core.backends.google.GoogleOAuth2',
    'social_core.backends.google.GoogleOAuth',
    'social_core.backends.twitter.TwitterOAuth',
    'social_core.backends.facebook.FacebookOAuth2',
    'social_core.backends.github.GithubOAuth2',


    ]

    I have also used UserCreationForm for signup,

    class SignupForm(UserCreationForm):
    first_name = forms.CharField(max_length=30, required=True, help_text='Required.')
    last_name = forms.CharField(max_length=30, required=True, help_text='Required.')
    email = forms.EmailField(max_length=254, help_text='Required. Inform a valid email address.')

    class Meta:
    model = User
    fields = ('username', 'first_name', 'last_name', 'email', 'password1', 'password2' )


    This is the views file,

    def signup(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
    form = SignupForm(request.POST)
    if form.is_valid():
    form.save()
    username = form.cleaned_data.get('username')
    raw_pass = form.cleaned_data.get('password')
    user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=raw_pass)
    login(request,user,backend='django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend')
    url = reverse('location:get_location')
    print("location_url ", url)
    return HttpResponseRedirect(url)
    else:
    form = SignupForm()
    return render(request, 'signup.html', {'form':form})


    Now, I get this error when i click signup button on my form,

    'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute '_meta'


    at the line,

    login(request,user,backend='django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend')


    Why so ?

    I can see in my admin panel that user has been saved.

    What is causing this error ? and how to solve it ?

    EDIT -
