I've been testing with DEBUG=False under 'python manage.py runserver'.
As per the dox, I have added into my ROOT url file, the required
overrides:
{{{
from django.conf.urls import *
from django.contrib import admin
from django.http import HttpResponse
handler404 = 'urls.custom_handler'
handler500 = 'urls.custom_handler'
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^apikey/', include('apikey.urls', namespace='apikey')),
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
]
def custom_handler(request, template_name='404.html'):
print '---->>>> got to here!'
raise Exception
return HttpResponse('<h1>Boo! - Page not found</h1>')
}}}
I have created both the default 404.html and 500.html templates in my
apikey/templates directory and updated the site settings file to reflect
this
and I can confirm that this default 404.html and 500.html files are indeed
getting rendered, but '''not''' by my routine.
My custom handler never, '''ever''' fires when a 404 or 500 is raised.
I am at a loss as to why this has stopped working and I have been
searching both the tickets DB and the net for a solution so it may well be
a bug.
