admin logout throw exception

exception
retag add tags

I used the option of make the first user that we create as a admin during askbot installation. But now the problem is I am unable to successfully logout the admin user without exception.

AttributeError at /admin/logout/
'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute 'get_and_delete_messages'
Request Method: GET
Request URL:    http://localhost:8001/admin/logout/
Django Version: 1.4.5
Exception Type: AttributeError
Exception Value:    
'AnonymousUser' object has no attribute 'get_and_delete_messages'
Exception Location: /../askbot/user_messages/context_processors.py in user_messages, line 21

I solved that problem by modifying /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/askbot/user_messages/context_processors.py

# messages = request.user.get_and_delete_messages() .... original, prox. line 22
messages = get_and_delete_messages(request)

Because I find function get_and_delete_messages only defined as a "standalone" function in that file, and never a method of some class. But it is used as request.user.get_and_delete_messages(). I assume it's a typo. If I am right, another typo is in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/askbot/user_messages/__init__.py (same usage).

Correct me if I am wrong. But it's likely my solution works.

Do you have line in theMIDDLEWARE_CLASSES in your settings.py?

'askbot.middleware.anon_user.ConnectToSessionMessagesMiddleware',

If not, add it, otherwise we may need to look at this issue in more detail.

I am still seeing the problem do you know if the issue has been fixed?

'askbot.middleware.anon_user.ConnectToSessionMessagesMiddleware' is there (enabled), but exception occurs

See my answer under this one. (name: hailong) Since I noticed you are the leading character in this project, I would like ask you to confirm or correct my finding.
