settings.py where I change for Custom User Model

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'dashboard_app',
    'account_app',

]

AUTH_USER_MODEL = "account_app.User" # changes the built-in user model to ours

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
    'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
)
WSGI_APPLICATION = 'SMSystem.wsgi.application'

Had the same issue. Instead of password=None, change it to password. And pass 'password=password' together with 'username=username' into the create_user function as you see below:

class MyAccountManager(BaseUserManager): def create_user(self, email, username, password): if not email: raise ValueError('Please add an email address') if not username: raise ValueError('Please add an username')

    **user = self.model(email=self.normalize_email(
    email), username=username, password=password)**

    user.set_password(password)
    user.save(using=self._db)
    return user

    def create_superuser(self, email, username, password):
        user = self.create_user(email=self.normalize_email(
    email), username=username, password=password)

        user.is_active = True
        user.is_admin = True
        user.is_staff = True
        user.is_superuser = True
        user.save(using=self._db)
        return user

Hope it works for you

Only users with is_active attribute True can log into the system. Inside createuser method pass active=True or change default value of active to True

def create_user(self, email, password=None):
        """
        creates a user with given email and password
    """
    if not email:
        raise ValueError('user must have a email address')

    user = self.model(
        email=self.normalize_email(email),
        active=True, #Add this line
    )

    user.set_password(password)
    user.save(self._db)
    return user

--OR, change default value of active to true --

class User(AbstractBaseUser):
    email = models.EmailField(
        verbose_name='Email address',
        max_length=255,
        unique=True
    )
    # change default value to True
    active = models.BooleanField(default=True)

What fixed this for me: Rather than passing password=password into the self.model call in my create_superuser method, I called user.set_password(password). After doing that, I was able to login.
