It raises :exc:`~django.http.Http404` if the list is empty. -Write a 404 (page not found) view -================================= - -When you raise :exc:`~django.http.Http404` from within a view, Django -will load a special view devoted to handling 404 errors. It finds it -by looking for the variable ``handler404`` in your root URLconf (and -only in your root URLconf; setting ``handler404`` anywhere else will -have no effect), which is a string in Python dotted syntax -- the same -format the normal URLconf callbacks use. A 404 view itself has nothing -special: It's just a normal view. - -You normally won't have to bother with writing 404 views. If you don't set -``handler404``, the built-in view :func:`django.views.defaults.page_not_found` -is used by default. Optionally, you can create a ``404.html`` template -in the root of your template directory. The default 404 view will then use that -template for all 404 errors when :setting:`DEBUG` is set to ``False`` (in your -settings module). If you do create the template, add at least some dummy -content like "Page not found". - -.. warning:: - - If :setting:`DEBUG` is set to ``False``, all responses will be - "Bad Request (400)" unless you specify the proper :setting:`ALLOWED_HOSTS` - as well (something like ``['localhost', '127.0.0.1']`` for - local development). - -A couple more things to note about 404 views: - -* If :setting:`DEBUG` is set to ``True`` (in your settings module) then your - 404 view will never be used (and thus the ``404.html`` template will never - be rendered) because the traceback will be displayed instead. - -* The 404 view is also called if Django doesn't find a match after checking - every regular expression in the URLconf. - -Write a 500 (server error) view -=============================== - -Similarly, your root URLconf may define a ``handler500``, which points -to a view to call in case of server errors. Server errors happen when -you have runtime errors in view code. - -Likewise, you should create a ``500.html`` template at the root of your -template directory and add some content like "Something went wrong". - Use the template system ======================= |
