Issue after django messages framework disabled

Question

I'm trying to disable the django messages framework in django 1.8, so i did what docs says:

If you don’t want to use messages, you can remove 'django.contrib.messages' from your INSTALLED_APPS, the MessageMiddleware line from MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES, and the messages context processor from TEMPLATES.

So i followed this, but now when i try to save an model through admin i get the following error:

MessageFailure: You cannot add messages without installing django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware

Here's my traceback:

The django admin depends on messages framework. Like the [doc][1] says: > 2. The admin has four dependencies - django.contrib.auth, django.contrib.contenttypes, django.contrib.messages and > django.contrib.sessions. If these applications are not in your > INSTALLED_APPS list, add them. [1]: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/contrib/admin/#o – Rafael Sandrini Aug 07 '15 at 12:19
