[Answered ]-Why am I obtaining "NoReverseMatch at /catalog/borrowed/" error in this Django application?

The mistake probably is in the reverse HttpResponseRedirect in the views.py of the renew_book_librarian() method.

For the argument that’s passed to reverse('name') pass the correct ‘name‘, from where the function is originally called.

catalog.urls is something you call from locallibrary.urls(which has the root urls).

In this case you need to give a app name for the urls in catalog.urls.

eg:
app_name = 'catalog'

All the urls inside the catalog.urls needs to be called in the template by it’s app name.

eg:
{% url 'catalog:book-detail' bookinst.book.pk %}

When you are just calling book-detail without it’s app name, then django starts looking at the root urls file where this particular url doesn’t exist.
