CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfResponseMiddleware',
)

Above is my settings.py file, even then I am getting the CSRF
verification failure error.

I am also using {% csrf_token %}, even then I am getting error.

Do You pass *RequestContext* to your template during rendering it in view?
Example from manual:

def my_view(request):
c = {}
# ...
return render_to_response("a_template.html", c,
context_instance=RequestContext(request))

[Harbhag Singh Sohal]

from django.template import RequestContext
return render_to_response('abook_view.html',
locals(),context_instance=RequestContext(request))

this is what I am using. Is it ok ?

What you're doing should be fine, in terms of whether it works or not. However, I'd strongly recommend against passing locals(). While it may seem to violate DRY to do anything else, experience has shown me that it makes maintaining the code a lot harder in the long run, as it's not immediately obvious exactly what is being passed to the template. It's obvious what's being passed from the tiny view you've got there, but as your views grow, this will become a problem.

Cheers,
Dan

The error is solved now, and I will keep your advice about locals() in
my mind. Thanks
