如何制作自定义错误页面 django 2.2

Question

I am creating a blog using Django 2.2, and I have recently finished almost all of it. All that is left is making custom error pages. I have a book that shows how to do it, but it doesn't work. I have checked all over online, but nothing works. Please help? Here is the code:

settings.py:

?: (urls.E007) The custom handler404 view 'blog_posts.views.custom_404' does not take the correct number of arguments (request, exception).

Answer 1

As specified by the error, the view needs to take two parameters, the request , and the exception :

from django.http import HttpResponseNotFound
from django.template.loader import render_to_string

def custom_404(request):
    return HttpResponseNotFound(
        'blog_posts/404.html', request=request
    )

You should let it return a HttpResponseNotFound object [Django-doc] , so we can here call render_to_string to first render the template to a string, and then wrap it in a HttpResponseNotFound .

The exception contains the exception object. You can for example read details from this object and add these to the exception page.

This is specified in the documentation on handler404 :

(…) If you implement a custom view, be sure it accepts request and exception arguments and returns an HttpResponseNotFound .
