[FIXED] How to switch off the django debug screen

Issue

I have django project.

In my development, when error happens like not import modules... etc.

It shows the error on the browser, but I don't want to show that in production.

Where can I switch off the debug mode???

Solution

The settings.py file has a DEBUG setting ^[Django-doc]. You will furthermore need to specify the ALLOWED_HOSTS setting ^[Django-doc]. You can set this to False:

# settings.py

# …
DEBUG = False

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['www.mywebsite.com']
# …

Note that some tooling of Django is not done when you work in a production environment, like serving static files. You will need to configure nginx/apache/… for that. For more information, see the Deploying static files section in the documentation.
