password_reset_form_save() got an unexpected keyword argument 'request'

[Ben O'Day]

I recently upgraded to Django 1.3 (from 1.2) and noticed that our
password reset functionality isn't working. I do have the templates
customized, but am using the default view/form files for this.
Looking at the django.contrib.auth.views file, I can't see the issue
either (the parameters in the opt dict seem to match the expected
params on the form, etc)

here is my urls.py config...

# password reset
(r'^password_reset/$', 'django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset',
{'template_name':'registration/dasn_password_reset.html',
'email_template_name':'email/dasn_password_reset_email.html'}),
(r'^password_reset/done/$',
'django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_done',
{'template_name':'registration/dasn_password_reset_done.html'}),
(r'^reset/(?P<uidb36>[0-9A-Za-z]+)-(?P<token>.+)/$',
'django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_confirm', {'template_name':
'registration/dasn_password_reset_confirm.html'}),
(r'^reset/done/$',
'django.contrib.auth.views.password_reset_complete', {'template_name':
'registration/dasn_password_reset_complete.html'}),

here is the error...any ideas?

So based on this info you are using the latest (or thereabouts) 1.3.X branch, not 1.3 release, right?
 

Exception Type:         TypeError
Exception Value:

password_reset_form_save() got an unexpected keyword argument
'request'

password_reset_form_save() doesn't exist in stock Django code, so this looks a bit odd.

Exception Location:     c:\projects\dasn\django\django\contrib\auth
\views.py in password_reset, line 155

This line is: https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/branches/releases/1.3.X/django/contrib/auth/views.py#L155

form.save(**opts)

The message you would get there if opts had an unexpected keyword argument is:

save() got an unexpected keyword argument 'request'

It looks to me like you have something custom in the Django code -- where is that password_reset_form_save function coming from? (It also doesn't appear that passing request to the password reset form is new in 1.3.)
