urls.py:

    path('password-reset/',
         auth_views.PasswordResetView.as_view(
             template_name='users/password_reset.html'
         ),
         name='password_reset'),

         ),
         name='password_reset_complete'),
    path("", include('blog.urls')),

I am trying to set an email password reset in my Django app but get this unexpected error. What I am trying to do here is I am using Django inbuild views PasswordResetView, PasswordResetDoneView, PasswordResetConfirmView to reset my registered account's password through email.

Can you help me with this or provide me with some links so I can reach the core of this error?

Here is detailed link to solve that problem, pay attention to system variables set to be similar to those set on settings.py here

I have solved the issue the issue was with my Gmail account you need to go to the settings > security then create a new app password and then replace the Gmail password in settings.py with your newly created app password.

I think your Gmail should also have 2-factor authentication, mine was already on but if you try this I think you should first try to turn on the 2-factor authentication and then try all these steps.
