404 error

Hi Rune,

Unfortunately you probably didn't find Mr. Owildeberry's answer very helpful.

First a link to the challenge:

http://teamtreehouse.com/library/build-a-social-network-with-flask/how-to-win-friends/uhoh-404

Here's what I added to the bottom of lunch.py to get past part 2 of 3 for the challenge:

Challenge Task 2 of 3

Add a new function named not_found that returns the string "404". Remember, error handlers need to accept a single argument, the error. Decorate this function with @app.errorhandler(404). Add , 404 after your response, too.

@app.errorhandler(404)
def not_found(error):
    return "404", 404  

This is not the same as what is need to pass part 3 of the challenge:

Challenge Task 3 of 3

Now make not_found render the "404.html" template. Add an <h1> to the template with the 404 error code in it. Add a message to the template, if you want.

@app.errorhandler(404)
def not_found(error):
    return render_template('404.html'), 404

..which comes directly from the 'app.py' file found in the 'S4V5' folder of the course's zip download.

(Note: this is the only challenge so far where looking at the course's zip file download has been helpful to me.)

Of course you'll have to take a look at the '404.html' file under ''S4V5/templates/' folder of the course's zip,

to find the two lines needed for the {% block content %} section of the templates/404.html tab of the challenge.

Something like:

{% block content %}
<h1>404</h1>

<p>Wow, sorry, that page doesn't exist.</p>

{% endblock %}

Just wait to you get to the Tacocat challenge, though. Then you'll really be challenged!
