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:

django.core.management.base.SystemCheckError: SystemCheckError: System check identified some issues:
ERRORS:
?: (urls.E007) The custom handler404 view 'blog_posts.views.custom_404' does not take the correct number of arguments (request, exception).
System check identified 1 issue (0 silenced).
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
andexception
arguments and returns anHttpResponseNotFound
.
