Answer 1

I had a similar error in my production server and thanks to sentry's breadcrumbs I saw that the error that was raising had to do with my settings, especially the ALLOWED_HOSTS.

Django version 1.10.8 with python 2.7.

My previous settings:

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['0.0.0.0',
                 'beta.mydomain.co.uk',
                 'mydomain.co.uk',
                 'www.mydomain.co.uk',
                 'alpha.mydomain.co.uk']

Sentry Breadcrumbs screen shot:

After that I looked around and found this:

A value beginning with a period can be used as a subdomain wildcard: '.example.com' will match example.com, www.example.com, and any other subdomain of example.com.

Link to Django official docs

So my final settings that solved my problem:

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['0.0.0.0',
                 'mydomain.co.uk',
                 'www.mydomain.co.uk',
                 '.mydomain.co.uk']

Hope this was useful :)
