Re: custom500 page does not show up ?

Hi Melvyn,


The interesting thing is 404.html is working but not 500.html.
In settings paths are dynamically set. Also i am receiving the error messages on my email as i am the admin.
Let say there is some syntax error so in the email it will give me information about that but without displaying 500 page.

I am  amazed then why 404 is working.

Sorry I worded that rather bad. Your goal is to connect to the page that
triggers a 500 error with one of the tools I mentioned so you can see
the actual response, not what your browser shows you as the browser
could be showing you it's own "server error" page.

Of course, you can still have the error in base.html.

See settings.py, the bottom part. If debug is set to 'off', 500 errors
are mailed to the DJANGO_ADMIN.

[ ] Make sure that absolute paths in settings.py point to actual
directories on the production server.
