404 error

Any idea why I might be getting a 404 error while trying to render the "It worked" page? I reviewed and checked settings files. Only diff is I cheated and used ALLOWED_HOSTS = [''] in base.py and HOSTS = '' in local.py. Using a brand new virtualenv and followed steps closely. TIA, V.

Locally, assuming DEBUG = True, ALLOWED_HOSTS isn't checked. Remotely, assuming you're not tracking the local.py file and thus DEBUG = False, I think ALLOWED_HOSTS should either be set to '*' or your domain name. Setting it to an empty string should make it match nothing that comes in and then throw errors.
