I got this error because I create a custom usermodel, and When I got all setup, which I look into the django/contrib/auth/models.py, I set the email as USERNAME_FIELD, and REQUIRED_FIELD is some field that is not defined in AbstractBaseUser and PermissionMixin which my UserModel inherited, I can access all section except the 'Po User add section', and I put on my codes in models.py and admin.py and settings.py ,urls.py ,wish somebody could help.
error traces:
