Also why did from django.contrib.auth.views.login become case sensitive? I have users that login with User and user, in PostgreSQL this is treated as 2 different things. Using MySQL it always saw it as one.. all very frustrating. 

Django has always been case sensitive. MySQL is the problem here, because it's default string collation isn't case sensitive. However, MySQL will still allow you to store "User" and "user" in the same table without hitting uniqueness constraints. 

 

I will try SQLite tomorrow maybe instead, been up 2 days straight trying to get this to work and I really don't want to use MySQL anymore since its now owned by Oracle and slowly going to become closed source while MariaDB is not fully supported by Django just yet.

SQLite is a reasonable database for testing, but don't expect it to stand up to any sort of real load in practice.
