Django raising 404 with a message

Question

I like to raise 404 with some error message at different places in the script eg: Http404(\"some error msg: %s\" %msg) So, in my urls.py I included:

<         


        

Answer 1

Yes we can show specific exception message when raise Http404.

Pass some exception message like this

raise Http404('Any kind of message ')

Add 404.html page into templates directory.

templates/404.html

{{exception}}
