I am a newbie in the IT world and so excited to be in.
I have undergone Python training and took up the challenge to learn Django on Udemy.
Following the steps given keenly and perfectly as much as i could, I encountered the error in the screenshot below.

I will be so happy if any of my seniors and any of the gurus in the house to tell me or show me how to rectify the cause of the error.

Most likely a problem from your Views.Py file. Cross check all files again with the tutorial you are following. If it still doesn't work, then start from a couple of steps back or even start all over again (if you haven't gone too far previously).

In your views you didnt implement challenge. you implemented just index.the path() espects a routh as a first argument.
So django saw that as a module(challange is actually defined as a module.) and as such throws error.
Try and define a proper view for challenge and also include a pattern for index

You didn't put anything in challenges url.py file

Boss, please come down to my level sir

From your screenshots, all looks good. The issue could either be from the way you are trying to access the url.

Seems you are visiting the URL using just

localhost:8000/January

You have to go through

localhost:8000/challenges/January

for it to work. If you can screenshot the URL path you try to use in accessing the view.

Or better still, try and add comma in the URL path since it is a list.

what he is trying to say in layman's term is that you didn't use challenges in your URL when accessing the view

If you wish to just access the view from example

localhost:8000/January

Then you have to remove the challenges from the URL py file in the folder where settings is located.

So since you used

path("challenges/", include("challenges.urls" ),

Change it to path("", include("challenges.urls" ),

Just put comma at the end of each path() for your project url and app url. Eg

path('challenges', include ('challenges.urls')),
path('', views.index),

path("challenges/", include("challenges.urls" ),

Change it to path("", include("challenges.urls" ),

That would have given path error and django would have suggested possible path for him.
