I had same error on python3.5.2. The error is that the name of the setter of a property has to be same as that of the property. https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#property If the name of the function '_set_password' is changed to 'password', then it will work. I don't know this change is compatible to python v2.x.

I changed the function '_set_password' to 'password', it model.py and it has resolved the problem.

There is still an issue directing after signup where it goes to localhost/user/XXX but that could be an unrelated issue with config somewhere.
