Why is Django throwing error “DisallowedHost at /”

问题:

I am setting up my own Django server using this Digital Ocean tutorial. I created the Django framework following each step, and ran the server using this command:

./manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

When I tried to visit the IP at port 8000, the following error was shown:

DisallowedHost at /
Invalid HTTP_HOST header: 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:8000'. You may need to add u'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' to ALLOWED_HOSTS.

(IP substituted with X's)

Why is this happening?

回答1:

In your settings.py, there is a list called ALLOWED_HOSTS. You need to add the IP address you see in the error to that list:

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['XX.XX.XX.XX']

The port should not be added.

Explanation:

Django checks the Host header of the HTTP request for a url/ip address that is within the allowed hosts.

From the django website:

This is a security measure to prevent HTTP Host header attacks, which are possible even under many seemingly-safe web server configurations.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/ref/settings/#allowed-hosts

回答2:

Include both ('www.name.com', 'ip.ip.ip.ip') Set Debug = True, then retry the IP & URL Address.

Go to the Traceback section, find the message [ raise DisallowedHost(msg) ] click -> ▼ Local vars

It will show the incoming domain name and the settings for allowed hosts:

*Variable       Value
*allowed_hosts  ['ip.ip.ip.ip', 'name.com']
*domain          'something.com'
*

Copy the incoming value into your settings.py. If the you see old settings restart the server\nginx
