This is my Urls.py for my project

urlpatterns = patterns('',
    (r'^ImageUpload/', include('ImageUpload.urls')),
    (r'^accounts/', include('registration.backends.default.urls')),
    (r'^$', RedirectView.as_view(url='/ImageUpload/list/')), # Just for ease of use.
) + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

Can someone explain what the error means please?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Its complaining about line no.14 because Django is unable to determine the url named as "index" in your urls.py files. I don't see a URL named as "index" above. Where/What is the URL pattern for your home page?

OTHER TIPS

This happens when the URL match expression has a parameter but there are none passed in with the reverse in the template.
