Error "u'social' is not a registered namespace" in basic integration of Auth0 with Django 1.8 - auth0

Question

I have a basic functional integration of Auth0 with Django 1.9 for user authentication, obtained of https://auth0.com/docs/quickstart/backend/django that use Python2.7 and works fine.
But I whant change the version of the Django to 1.8. To do this I did some changes mostly in settigs, but I'm missing something.
When whant to access to http://127.0.0.1:8000/login/auth0 get the error: NoReverseMatch at /login/auth0. u'social' is not a registered namespace
That URL match with social_django.urls
The code is:

Looking at your urls.py I don't see the route you are looking to leverage. Have you combed through your app as well as well as your Auth0 application dashboard to confirm that any changes made are reflected there as well? That would be the first step I would recommend to resolve this issue. I hope this helps you in your quest!
