It looks like Tim wanted you to talk to the Django Developers list. This is the Django Users list.
Stating that, I think the NoReverseMatch exception should not be caught. From: django-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:django-users@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Grzegorz Tezycki Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2017 4:27 AM To: Django users Subject: RedirectView failing silently on NoReverseMatch is confusing Hi everyone. Tim Graham told me that problem with ticet: #26911 should be discuss on mailing list. Details of ticket are here : https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/26911 When developer set 'pattern_name' in RedirectView and this pattern is incorrect, then method catch NoReverseMatch exception and return None. I think, that method get_redirect_url should raise ImproperlyConfigured error with message "Reverse URL for 'xxxx' not found.", or NoReverseMatch exception not should be catch What you think about this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
