getting 500 131 error on page not found

[Sabine Maennel]

I really do not understand what is happening. I have a 404.html along with a 500.html in my template directory. They are both simple and look like this:

404.html:

<h1>Server Error 404!</h1>
<h3>Das netTeachers-Team ist informiert und kümmert sich darum.
Wir hoffen auf Ihr Verständnis.</h3>

500.html:

<h1>Server Error 500!</h1>
<h3>Das netTeachers-Team ist informiert und kümmert sich darum.
Wir hoffen auf Ihr Verständnis.</h3>

When I put in a non existent url on runserver and DEBUG=False, I get this error in my log: [21/Oct/2014 16:08:56] "GET /x HTTP/1.1" 500 131

It seems like he does not find my 404.html Template but why???

My settings.py looks like this in the part of template directories:

import os
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))

ROOT_URLCONF = 'netteachers.urls'

TEMPLATE_DIRS = (
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'templates'),
)

CRISPY_TEMPLATE_PACK = 'bootstrap3'

TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = (
    "django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth",
    "django.core.context_processors.debug",
    "django.core.context_processors.i18n",
    "django.core.context_processors.media",
    'django.core.context_processors.request',
    "django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages",
    "core.context_processors.resolvermatch",
)

Please can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong! Thanks in advance!

Hi Sabine,

It may be an issue with your core.context_processors.resolvermatch.

I recommend setting ADMINS so you get the error emailed to you.

You have DEBUG=True on, so you will never see your custom 404 page:

Dear Tom,  Thanks for your reply, but I did not have DEBUG=True on. With DEBUG=True the program behaves as expected. Things go wrong just when I set DEBUG=False. But thanks anyway for your reply.

Dear Collin,

you hit the nail right right on top. That was it! I feel so thankful towards you! I would never have thought about the context processors. 

I am so thankful to everybody here in the Django User group to always taking the time and helping me out. I will try to give back, as soon as I get to be more experienced! 

I have the ADMINS setting in place in my production settings file, Collin. I was just trying to understand the error in my local environment first, since it occurred even there.

You have been helping me out quite a lot lately. Where are you located? How long have you been doing Django?

   Thanks again and with kind regards
