I'm in the middle of putting up my first django application on shared hosting. This should be an easy thing, but I am just not seeing it.
I tried to follow the directions of the django documentation, and created a 404.html page within my template folder. I just wrote "This is a 404 page." in the .html file. I also did the same thing for a 500.html page and wrote in it "This is a 500 page."
However when I hit a 'bad page' I get a standard 404 page from the browser (Oops! This link appears to be broken. in Chrome) when I would expect "This is a 404 page."
What's even more interesting is out of frustration I wrote {% asdfjasdf %} in the 404.html, and instead of getting the "Oops!..." error I get "This is a 500 page," so it definitely sees the 404.html template.
Here's what I can confirm:
- Debug = False
- I am running apache on a shared hosting
- I have not done anything special with .htaccess and 404 errors.
- If I run with Debug = True, it says it's a 404 error.
- I am using FastCGI
Anything else anyone think I could try?
Thank you very much!
