Django rest-auth password reset not working

I'm using Django for building a RESTful API for a mobile app, I use django rest-auth library for authentication, but I get the following error when I try using password reset:

NoReverseMatch at /auth/password/reset/
Reverse for 'auth_password_reset_confirm' with arguments '(b'OQ', '4nx-
6653c24101b5443f726b')' and keyword arguments '{}' not found. 0 pattern(s) 
tried: []

Given this snippet from my url patterns 

url(r'^', include('django.contrib.auth.urls')),
url(r'^auth/', include('rest_auth.urls')),
url(r'^auth/registration/', include('rest_auth.registration.urls')),

I tried some solutions mentioned here (as adding this first pattern in the snippet) but still having the same error.

This error means you have not defined any url with this name auth_password_reset_confirm so you need to make a url with this name auth_password_reset_confirm.

You need to customize the django rest-auth in such a way.

In rest-auth > urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    ....
    url(r'^password/reset/confirm/(?P<uidb64>[0-9A-Za-z_\-]+)/(?P<token>[0-9A-Za-z]{1,13}-[0-9A-Za-z]{1,20})/$', PasswordResetConfirmView.as_view(),
    name='auth_password_reset_confirm'),
    ....
]

See in this case, you put the name as auth_password_reset_confirm. In my case, I got this error for this reverse url password_reset_confirm so I put that as a name in urls.

But in your case it would be auth_password_reset_confirm.

Try This : In Settings.py : Make sure 'app' is at the end of installed apps

then try again

You don't have that url defined, you can check the demo project from rest-auth library to see how it handles the urls (and related templates).
