I am trying to get my Django app to point to the correct URL in my chatserver/urls.py file.
I am getting this error when I start my django app:
Using the URLconf defined in chatserver.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:
admin/ join [name=’join’] The empty path didn’t match any of these.
This is my chatserver/urls.py file:
from django.contrib import admin from django.urls import path, include urlpatterns = [ path('', include('chat.urls')), path('admin/', admin.site.urls), ]
And this is my chat/urls.py file:
from django.urls import path from . import views urlpatterns = [ path('join', views.init, name='join'), ]
And here is my app project directory:
How can I correct my error?

Answer
I would provide a name for my app in chat/urls.py
from .views import init app_name = 'chat' urlpatterns = [ path('join', view=init, name='join'), ]
then for my chatserver/urls.py provide a namespace for each path
urlpatterns = [ path('', include('chat.urls', namespace='chat')), ]
