 Starting development server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
 Quit the server with CONTROL-C.

when I test in browser, I am getting the page can't be displayed error. Can anyone help me to do get the django page.

Answer 1

You stated that you are running the server on Ubuntu while you are trying to connect it from another PC running Windows. In that case, you should replace the 127.0.0.1 with the actual IP address of Ubuntu server (the one you use for PuTTY).

Answer 2

I am also developing in a virtual machine.

Use ifconfig to figure out the IP address that has been assigned to your virtual machine.

Then start the server with:

python manage.py runserver <IP>:8000

Of course you could also use a different port instead of 8000 . Then use that address and port in your host browser to access your server.

Note: At least in my VM, the virtual machine gets a new address from time to time, so check that in case you have trouble starting your server with the same command.

If this does not help, check your hosts file as mentioned in one of the comments.
