Django MimeType error

guys, I have no idea what is wrong with this error. The code is not something that I wrote so I don't know much about it. Any help is greatly appreciated. I will update the question with any other information that you ask for when it is needed. The code is very hard to read an upload to stack overflow so code posts may take a long time to reply.

Environment:


Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://192.168.2.214/accounts/login/?next=/

Django Version: 1.11.6
Python Version: 2.7.12
 Installed Applications:
 ('django.contrib.auth',
 'django.contrib.admin',
 'django.contrib.contenttypes',
 'django.contrib.sessions',
 'tsa.events')
 Installed Middleware:
 ('django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
 'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
 'tsa.settings.ChapterMiddleware',
 'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware')



Traceback:

The mimetype argument was removed in Django 1.7. Use content_type instead.

return HttpResponse(txt, content_type=kwds.get('mimetype','text/html'))
