500 Internal Server Error for /rest-auth/password/reset/

When I tried to use the /rest-auth/password/reset/ endpoint to reset password, I got this error. It was fine for v0.5, but not v0.6. Thanks.

Trackback:

I had the same error when using django-rest-auth 0.9.0 with django-allauth 0.27.0. This SO post solved my error: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26869309/django-rest-framework-django-allauth-password-reset-recovery/36365644#36365644

I’ll copy below in case it goes away. Since rest_framework beautifully integrates with allauth, I think this fix could be included in a future version.

In case it helps, solved this problem by just created a new class to override the password serializer.

from rest_auth.serializers import PasswordResetSerializer
from allauth.account.forms import ResetPasswordForm

class PasswordSerializer (PasswordResetSerializer):
    password_reset_form_class = ResetPasswordForm

Then make sure to add this to your settings:

REST_AUTH_SERIALIZERS = {
    'PASSWORD_RESET_SERIALIZER': 'api.helpers.pwdreset.PasswordSerializer',
}

I’m get some trouble a day ago, I thought that trouble must be documented.
