Answer 1

Django provides a "mock" user called AnonymousUser. My guess would be you are trying to use the AnonymousUser as a foreign key to another model which will not work. There is a check user.is_anonymous() that you can do and handle the case were there is not an authenticated user.

You need to add for context if you want help with your second error. A surefire fix is to comment out the CSRF middleware.

Answer 2

I beleive its due to the increase security in Django 1.2.1. You need to lower the security of your application to make it work with the above version and go back to the old security quality. Have a look at the related doc on the main djangoproject.com side

In your INSTALLED_APPS section you add the following to do so:

'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfResponseMiddleware',
