'Page not found' error in Django code while making the pipeline

Time:05-06

I am trying to make an e-commerce website in django. I want to lay the rough pipeline using this code but when i search, for example- http://127.0.0.1:8000/shop/about - This 404 Error come on my screen. Please tell me what to do.

 Page not found (404)
 Request Method:    GET
 Request URL:   http://127.0.0.1:8000/shop/about
 Using the URLconf defined in ekona.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:

 admin/
 shop [name='ShopHome']

 shop about [name='about']
 shop contact/ [name='ContactUs']
 shop tracker/ [name='Tracker']
 shop search/ [name='Search']
 shop prodview/ [name='ProdView']
 shop checkout/ [name='Checkout']
 blog
 The current path, shop/about, didn’t match any of these.

 You’re seeing this error because you have DEBUG = True in your Django settings file. Change that 
 to False, and Django will display a standard 404 page.

My settings.py is -

"""

Please tell me why's the error coming

CodePudding user response:

 http://127.0.0.1:8000/shop/about 

You don't have this url in your urls.py try:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/about

without /shop/

edit: probably you have 2 urls.py files. One in project folder, and one in app folder. In your project urls.py you should add line:

path('shop/', include("shop.urls")),

and in yout app urls.py add line:

app_name = "shop"

CodePudding user response:

In ekona.urls add the following:

path('shop/', include("shop.urls")),

Also, make sure to import include like so:

from django.urls import path, include
