[Django]-Disallowed Host at Django

I too had problems with this and it is not easy for a beginner to fix. Here below is the sequence required:

First find your settings.py file, which is located:

projectName/projectName/settings.py

You can also find it using:
find -name “settings.py”
– likely you will have only one!

Once you have found this, you need to open it in a text editor and change the line

ALLOWED_HOSTS =[ ] to ALLOWED_HOSTS =[‘your.host.ip.address’] – include the ‘ ‘ and the [ ] then save.
You will have to re-start the server to get this to work eg:

   python manage.py runserver your.host.ip.address:8000

If you get a syntax error, make sure you have something that looks like:

ALLOWED_HOSTS =['192.168.1.200'] or whatever your ip address is.

1- run

ifconfig
check you ip address, and you should add the ip to this lone:
ALLOWED_HOSTS =[‘you IP address goes here’]

2- run:

python manage.py your-ip:8000

3- go to your browser and check you ip:8000

Just close the postman and try request in new tab. This worked for me.

1.You can also find it using: find -name “SETTINGS.py” – likely you will have only one!

2.Once you have found this, you need to open it in a text editor and change the line in the insetting File

 ALLOWED_HOSTS =['Your_compte_pythonanywher.pythonanywhere.com']

Additionally, you can have a file local_settings.py and settings.py.

If you are running in a local or a VPS server considered as local server:

python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8001

You need to add in local_settings.py

Also you can search how many ALLOWED_HOSTS has your code with:

grep -rin ALLOWED_HOSTS your_source_path
