Hi guys, i'm getting a "simple" trouble when I try to add AUTH_USER_MODEL constant to settings.py. It returns this error, but when I look to INSTALLED_APPS the app name that I'm still working is there. Here it is:

Here's my file structure

PMEapp does not have Users, which is used in some form in the auth user model

But I've created one User model using AbstractUser in models.py

Yeah, but it's in models, not User

I've tried here, however the error didn't disappeared. I'm Feeling dumb ...
Created a User file including all user types in PMEapp folder with user inside didn't work.
Moved User file to a folder called User, got the same error.
Put all user types in models.py but User(AbstractUser) was still in User.py . Didn't worked too.

#

I've added a User.py file in models folder and imported it to the file that got all the user types. Same error.
