Django error - matching query does not exist

Question

I finally released my project to the production level and suddenly I have some issues I never had to deal with in the development phase.

Answer 1

your line raising the error is here:

comment = Comment.objects.get(pk=comment_id)

you try to access a non-existing comment.

from django.shortcuts import get_object_or_404

comment = get_object_or_404(Comment, pk=comment_id)

Instead of having an error on your server, your user will get a 404 meaning that he tries to access a non existing resource.

Ok up to here I suppose you are aware of this.

Some users (and I'm part of them) let tabs running for long time, if users are authorized to delete data, it may happens. A 404 error may be a better error to handle a deleted resource error than sending an email to the admin.

Other users go to addresses from their history, (same if data have been deleted since it may happens).
