Root Cause

View does not handle the HTTP method (e.g., only POST allowed but GET requested).

generic

中文

视图未处理该 HTTP 方法(例如仅允许 POST 但请求为 GET)。

Workarounds

  1. 90% success
    Implement method check: if request.method == 'GET': ... elif request.method == 'POST': ...
  2. 95% success
    Use @require_http_methods(['GET', 'POST']) decorator.

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 70% fail

    Adding @require_POST to an endpoint that needs both GET and POST will block GET requests.

  2. 40% fail

    Changing the URL pattern without updating the view's method decorators doesn't help.
