Django site matching query does not exist error - django

Question

I installed allauth app, and once I try to go to my admin panel this error shows :
DoesNotExist at /admin/login/
Site matching query does not exist.
I know that it's configuration problem. Here is my settings.py file :
"""

I think the problem is with SITE_ID but no idea how to solve it.

Answer 1

i just made this :
in settings.py:
i added
INSTALLED_APPS =[
'django.contrib.sites']
then :
SITE_ID=1

Answer 2

For others having this issue and above does work; try increasing the value of the SITE_ID by 1 till it works
--OR--
run
manage.py shell
>>> from django.contrib.sites.models import Site
>>> Site.objects.all()
set SITE_ID to the highest id value
