Django url 和视图正确定义，仍然显示 404 错误

Question

I have a blog which was running without any error. Different users can register, login, and post articles. Users can write/edit/delete comments on the articles. Previously, the URL of the articles were decided using 'article id'. Later, I read this tutorial and added slug along with id in the URL for every article's Detail View. Then I deleted my old articles since they didn't have any slugs.

After this change, a user can create a comment successfully, but cannot 'edit' or 'delete' any comment. Whenever 'edit' or 'delete' button is pressed, 404 error is shown. See the error image by pressing this link .

Page not found (404)

Request Method: GET

Request URL: http://localhost:8000/articles/33/comment_edit/

Raised by: articles.views.ArticleDetailView

No article found matching the query

My corresponding files are listed below:

urls.py (inside Articles App directory)

from django.urls import path
from .views import (ArticleListView, ArticleUpdateView, ArticleDetailView, ArticleDeleteView, ArticleCreateView, 
                    CommentCreateView, CommentUpdateView, CommentDeleteView)

urlpatterns = [
    path('', ArticleListView.as_view(), name='article_list'),
    path('<int:pk>/<str:slug>/edit/', ArticleUpdateView.as_view(), name='article_edit'),
    path('<int:pk>/<str:slug>/', ArticleDetailView.as_view(), name='article_detail'),
    path('<int:pk>/<str:slug>/delete/', ArticleDeleteView.as_view(), name='article_delete'),
    path('new/', ArticleCreateView.as_view(), name='article_new'),
    #Comments below
    path('<int:pk>/<str:slug>/comment/', CommentCreateView.as_view(), name='comment_new'),
    path('<int:pk>/comment_edit/', CommentUpdateView.as_view(), name='comment_edit'),
    path('<int:pk>/comment_delete/', CommentDeleteView.as_view(), name='comment_delete'),
]

I have tried and run the website by commenting out the url for comments, ie, the last three lines above. The error shown is the same. This is strange.

        }
        return reverse("article_detail", kwargs=kwargs)

The links for creating a comment, editing a comment, and deleting a comment in any html file looks like this:

<a href="{% url 'comment_new' article.pk article.slug %}">Add Comment</a>
<a href="{% url 'comment_edit' comment.pk %}">Edit Comment</a>
<a href="{% url 'comment_delete' comment.pk %}">Delete Comment</a>

In my settings.py file, ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['*'] .

Kindly help me with this problem. I have searched online but didn't find any solution.

Answer 1

The important part of the error message is

Raised by: articles.views.ArticleDetailView

You are trying to edit a comment at /articles/33/comment_edit/ , but it is matching the URL pattern:

path('<int:pk>/<str:slug>/', ArticleDetailView.as_view(), name='article_detail'),

This gives a 404, because you don't have an article with pk=33 and slug='comment_edit'.

You could fix the issue by moving the CommentUpdateView above ArticleDetailView so that it matches first.

Answer 2

Have you added your app name inside settings.py ? Make sure you have added the name in settings.py which resides under the project folder.

Like so,

INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'app_name',] # <--- WhatEver is called 

And also make sure you are using your routes you have defined to access the correct page
