why is django server not working? (connection refused error)-CodePudding

I am doing a course : cs50 web programming with python and in project 2 Commerce while using python manage.py runserver I am getting this error:

This site can’t be reached 127.0.0.1 refused to connect.

this is project 2 commerce. https://cs50.harvard.edu/web/2020/projects/2/commerce/

I have not made any changes to the distribution code

for my last project I was able to make it work by using this code in settings.py :

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ["ide-2f9427eaa96d41debb489eacf31c97d6-8080.cs50.ws"] and changing url to the same but on using it in this project I get this error:

403 Forbidden

I am stuck please help me as soon as possible.

CodePudding user response：

check settings.py and make sure debug is set to True. Then go to allowed hosts and set it to ['*']. This will allow anyone on your system to connect to localhost server

CodePudding user response：

By default the server runs on port 8000 so you might want to try 127.0.0.1:8000 in your URL
