Django Exceptions

Django raises some of its own exceptions as well as standard Python exceptions.

Django Core Exceptions

Django core exception classes are defined in django.core.exceptions.

AppRegistryNotReady

exception AppRegistryNotReady[源代码]

This exception is raised when attempting to use models before the app loading process, which initializes the ORM, is complete.

ObjectDoesNotExist

exception ObjectDoesNotExist[源代码]

The base class for Model.DoesNotExist exceptions. A try/except for ObjectDoesNotExist will catch DoesNotExist exceptions for all models.

See get().

EmptyResultSet

exception EmptyResultSet[源代码]

EmptyResultSet may be raised during query generation if a query won’t return any results. Most Django projects won’t encounter this exception, but it might be useful for implementing custom lookups and expressions.

FieldDoesNotExist

exception FieldDoesNotExist[源代码]

The FieldDoesNotExist exception is raised by a model’s _meta.get_field() method when the requested field does not exist on the model or on the model’s parents.

MultipleObjectsReturned

exception MultipleObjectsReturned[源代码]

The base class for Model.MultipleObjectsReturned exceptions. A try/except for MultipleObjectsReturned will catch MultipleObjectsReturned exceptions for all models.

See get().

SuspiciousOperation

exception SuspiciousOperation[源代码]

The SuspiciousOperation exception is raised when a user has performed an operation that should be considered suspicious from a security perspective, such as tampering with a session cookie. Subclasses of SuspiciousOperation include:

  • DisallowedHost
  • DisallowedModelAdminLookup
  • DisallowedModelAdminToField
  • DisallowedRedirect
  • InvalidSessionKey
  • RequestDataTooBig
  • SuspiciousFileOperation
  • SuspiciousMultipartForm
  • SuspiciousSession
  • TooManyFieldsSent

If a SuspiciousOperation exception reaches the WSGI handler level it is logged at the Error level and results in a HttpResponseBadRequest. See the logging documentation for more information.

PermissionDenied

exception PermissionDenied[源代码]

The PermissionDenied exception is raised when a user does not have permission to perform the action requested.

ViewDoesNotExist

exception ViewDoesNotExist[源代码]

The ViewDoesNotExist exception is raised by django.urls when a requested view does not exist.

MiddlewareNotUsed

exception MiddlewareNotUsed[源代码]

The MiddlewareNotUsed exception is raised when a middleware is not used in the server configuration.

ImproperlyConfigured

exception ImproperlyConfigured[源代码]

The ImproperlyConfigured exception is raised when Django is somehow improperly configured — for example, if a value in settings.py is incorrect or unparseable.

FieldError

exception FieldError[源代码]

The FieldError exception is raised when there is a problem with a model field. This can happen for several reasons:

  • A field in a model clashes with a field of the same name from an abstract base class
  • An infinite loop is caused by ordering
  • A keyword cannot be parsed from the filter parameters
  • A field cannot be determined from a keyword in the query parameters
  • A join is not permitted on the specified field
  • A field name is invalid
  • A query contains invalid order_by arguments

ValidationError

exception ValidationError[源代码]

The ValidationError exception is raised when data fails form or model field validation. For more information about validation, see Form and Field Validation, Model Field Validation and the Validator Reference.

NON_FIELD_ERRORS

NON_FIELD_ERRORS

ValidationErrors that don’t belong to a particular field in a form or model are classified as NON_FIELD_ERRORS. This constant is used as a key in dictionaries that otherwise map fields to their respective list of errors.

RequestAborted

exception RequestAborted[源代码]

New in Django 3.0.

The RequestAborted exception is raised when a HTTP body being read in by the handler is cut off midstream and the client connection closes, or when the client does not send data and hits a timeout where the server closes the connection.

It is internal to the HTTP handler modules and you are unlikely to see it elsewhere. If you are modifying HTTP handling code, you should raise this when you encounter an aborted request to make sure the socket is closed cleanly.

SynchronousOnlyOperation

exception SynchronousOnlyOperation[源代码]

New in Django 3.0.

The SynchronousOnlyOperation exception is raised when code that is only allowed in synchronous Python code is called from an asynchronous context (a thread with a running asynchronous event loop). These parts of Django are generally heavily reliant on thread-safety to function and don’t work correctly under coroutines sharing the same thread.

If you are trying to call code that is synchronous-only from an asynchronous thread, then create a synchronous thread and call it in that. You can accomplish this is with asgiref.sync.sync_to_async().

URL Resolver exceptions

URL Resolver exceptions are defined in django.urls.

Resolver404

exception Resolver404

The Resolver404 exception is raised by resolve() if the path passed to resolve() doesn’t map to a view. It’s a subclass of django.http.Http404.

NoReverseMatch

exception NoReverseMatch

The NoReverseMatch exception is raised by django.urls when a matching URL in your URLconf cannot be identified based on the parameters supplied.

Database Exceptions

Database exceptions may be imported from django.db.

Django wraps the standard database exceptions so that your Django code has a guaranteed common implementation of these classes.

exception Error

exception InterfaceError

exception DatabaseError

exception DataError

exception OperationalError

exception IntegrityError

exception InternalError

exception ProgrammingError

exception NotSupportedError

The Django wrappers for database exceptions behave exactly the same as the underlying database exceptions. See PEP 249, the Python Database API Specification v2.0, for further information.

As per PEP 3134, a __cause__ attribute is set with the original (underlying) database exception, allowing access to any additional information provided.

exception models.``ProtectedError

Raised to prevent deletion of referenced objects when using django.db.models.PROTECT. models.ProtectedError is a subclass of IntegrityError.

exception models.``RestrictedError

Raised to prevent deletion of referenced objects when using django.db.models.RESTRICT. models.RestrictedError is a subclass of IntegrityError.

Http Exceptions

Http exceptions may be imported from django.http.

UnreadablePostError

exception UnreadablePostError

UnreadablePostError is raised when a user cancels an upload.

Transaction Exceptions

Transaction exceptions are defined in django.db.transaction.

TransactionManagementError

exception TransactionManagementError

TransactionManagementError is raised for any and all problems related to database transactions.

Testing Framework Exceptions

Exceptions provided by the django.test package.

RedirectCycleError

exception client.``RedirectCycleError

RedirectCycleError is raised when the test client detects a loop or an overly long chain of redirects.

Python Exceptions

Django raises built-in Python exceptions when appropriate as well. See the Python documentation for further information on the Built-in Exceptions.
