Dear all,

I wanted to set up a session in "Rooms" in order to test my experiment.

Unfortunately, I cannot login and receive the error "ADMIN_PASSWORD is undefined".

But I included the password both in oTree settings.py and Heroku. Moreover, I reseted the database.

This is the code from otree:
ADMIN_USERNAME = 'admin'
ADMIN_PASSWORD = environ.get('password')

I included both also in Heroku "Config Vars".

I would appreciate your help very much!!

Have a nice sunday!
Janina

Hi Janina, 

I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?

Hi,

What name did you use for the key in the Heroku Config Vars to set the admin password? If you use the code suggested by Janina (ADMIN_PASSWORD = environ.get('password')), the key has to be "password" and not "ADMIN_PASSWORD". Maybe that was the issue?

Alternatively, you can delete the line ADMIN_PASSWORD = environ.get('password'). In the Heroku Config Vars, you can set the environment variable OTREE_ADMIN_PASSWORD instead. oTree uses this variable by default to set the admin password.

Does that help?

Hi, 

thank you so much! Now I used: 
OTREE_ADMIN_PASSWORD = 'xy'
OTREE_ADMIN_NAME = 'admin'

and it worked.
