HTTPResponse instance has no attribute 'status_code' in python/django

Question

I have used python httplib to implement REST api to connect with Django tastypie. But whenever i try to get the status code it is showing following error

AttributeError at /actions/login
HTTPResponse instance has no attribute 'status_code'

My code goes below

import hashlib
import hmac
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from django.template import RequestContext

def loginAction(request):
    username=request.POST['email']
    password=request.POST['password']
    import httplib, urllib
    params = urllib.urlencode({'username': username})
    #hash username here to authenticate
    digest=hmac.new("qnscAdgRlkIhAUPY44oiexBKtQbGY0orf7OV1I50", str(request.POST['password']),hashlib.sha1).hexdigest()
    auth=username+":"+digest
    headers = {"Content-type": "application/json","Accept": "text/plain","Authorization":auth}
    conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("localhost",8000)
    conn.request("POST", "/api/ecp/profile/", params, headers)
    conn.set_debuglevel(1)
    response = conn.getresponse()
    return response

You must return a django.http.HttpResponse, not a httplib.HttpResponse

See: (httplib) http://docs.python.org/library/httplib.html#httplib.HTTPResponse

and: (django) https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/request-response/
