Django 'super object has no attribute clean_password1()'

I am trying to subclass Django's default usercreation form, but it fails for some reason at this function:

def clean_password1(self):
    password = self.cleaned_data['password1']
    if len(password) < 8:
        raise ValidationError('Password too short')
    return super(UserRegistrationForm, self).clean_password1()

It throws an error I put in the title on the last line of this code. I tried clean_password, clean_password(), and clean_password1(), but nothing works. Django version is 1.6.2 What is wrong?

I've looked at this question for advice.

As you can see in Django's code in GitHub, there's no method called clean_password1 or clean_password. There's a method called clean_password2 though :) Since there's no special check for the password, I suggest you just write

return password

EDIT Err, yes, there's a special check, the passwords must be identical. But this check will be done anyway wathever you call it or not.
