I have the following code in the urls.py in mysite project.
/mysite/urls.py
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^gallery/$', include('mysite.gallery.urls')),
)
This results in a 404 page when I try to access a url set in gallery/urls.py.
/mysite/gallery/urls.py
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^gallery/browse/$', 'mysite.gallery.views.browse'),
(r'^gallery/photo/$', 'mysite.gallery.views.photo'),
)
404 error
Using the URLconf defined in mysite.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:
^gallery/$
The current URL, gallery/browse/, didn't match any of these.
Also, the site is hosted on a media temple (dv) server and using mod_wsgi
Remove the $
from the regex of main urls.py
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^gallery/', include('mysite.gallery.urls')),
)
You don't need gallery
in the included Urlconf.
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^browse/$', 'mysite.gallery.views.browse'),
(r'^photo/$', 'mysite.gallery.views.photo'),
)
Read the django docs for more information
Note that the regular expressions in this example don't have a
$
(end-of-string match character) but do include a trailing slash. Whenever Django encountersinclude()
, it chops off whatever part of the URL matched up to that point and sends the remaining string to the included URLconf for further processing.
