After upgrading an old Django 1.8 to 2.1, when I try to login on my admin site, I get a 404 with message:
Using the URLconf defined in <mysite>.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:
[...]
The current path, login/, didn't match any of these.
Which I guess is true because it should be on __admin/login
as in my urls.py
I have:
urlpatterns = [
...
path(r'__admin/', admin.site.urls),
...
]
But:
/__admin/login
returns the login page as expectedmanage.py shell
and django.contrib.auth.authenticate()
works correctly
Python version (on VPS): 3.6.7
Django version (on VPS): 2.1.3 (also tried with 2.1.4)
EDIT 1
I've commented out all other urls
, so that now the only URL available is __admin
. Now, when I login I get this error:
Using the URLconf defined in mysite.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:
1. __admin/
The current path, login/, didn't match any of these.
It looks like django is looking for login/
rather than __admin/login
. Is that possible and what could be causing this?
EDIT 2 Added settings file.

Problems running django-admin django-admin should be on your system path if you installed Django via pip . If it's not in your path, ensure you have your virtual environment activated and you can try running the equivalent command python -m django .
Run 'python manage.py migrate' to apply them. Username (leave blank to use 'chatru'): admin Email address: [email protected] Password: Password (again): The password is too similar to the username.
from django. contrib. auth import authenticate user = authenticate(username='john', password='secret') if user is not None: if user. is_active: print "You provided a correct username and password!" else: print "Your account has been disabled!" else: print "Your username and password were incorrect."

I was not able to reproduce your error and I think your code is ok.
I think the main motivations for your error on the VPS is on the VPS.
Do you have any stale .pyc or .pyo files on your VPS ?
If so, try deleting them and then restarting the VPS.
If you solve your error, in order to prevent this issue in future, you should remove .pyc or .pyo files before starting your VPS.
It appears that this issue has to do with settings.py. I was facing the same issue and made changes to my settings.py
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES renamed to MIDDLEWARE
commented reference to 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.SessionAuthenticationMiddleware'
and the problem disappeared
