Got this! thanks to do support help we identified that the app routing is wrong in the tutorial when its setup on app platform to the domain/appname the you cannot access /admin, I’ve have changed temporary to just domain/ and it works. br, Kris
Hi there,
Would you mind sharing the exact error that you are getting?
If you are getting a white screen only, I could suggest checking your browser’s web console as well.
Feel free to share the errors here. Regards, Bobby
Hi Bobby!
thx for the rapid response!
the problem it self is that in general cant access admin path, I have URL generated by Web Service component eg. https://myapp.ondigitalocean.app/djangoapp and it works fine but when I type https://myapp.ondigitalocean.app/djangoapp/admin it takes me to https://myapp.ondigitalocean.app/admin/ and its empty: <html><head></head><body data-new-gr-c-s-loaded=“9.29.0”></body></html>
I suppose that is the matter of the routing URLs, but Im not really experienced in this.
br, Kris!
