Django Exceptions
=================


Django raises some Django specific exceptions as well as many standard
Python exceptions.

Django-specific Exceptions
==========================

.. module:: django.core.exceptions
    :synopsis: Django specific exceptions

ObjectDoesNotExist and DoesNotExist
-----------------------------------

The ``DoesNotExist`` exception is raised when an object is not found
for the given parameters of a query.

``ObjectDoesNotExist`` is defined in ``django.core.exceptions``.
``DoesNotExist`` is a subclass of the base ``ObjectDoesNotExist``
exception that is provided on every model class as a way of
identifying the specific type of object that could not be found.

See :meth:`~django.db.models.QuerySet.get()` for further information
on ``ObjectDoesNotExist`` and ``DoesNotExist``.

MultipleObjectsReturned
-----------------------

The ``MultipleObjectsReturned`` exception is raised by a query if only
one object is expected, but multiple objects are returned. A base version
of this exception is provided in ``django.core.exceptions``; each model
class contains a subclassed version that can be used to identify the
specific object type that has returned multiple objects.

See :meth:`~django.db.models.QuerySet.get()` for further information.

SuspiciousOperation
-------------------

The ``SuspiciousOperation`` exception is raised when a user has performed
an operation that should be considered suspicious from a security perspective,
such as tampering with a session cookie.

PermissionDenied
----------------

The ``PermissionDenied`` exception is raised when a user does not have
permission to perform the action requested.

ViewDoesNotExist
----------------

The ``ViewDoesNotExist`` exception is raised by
``django.core.urlresolvers`` when a requested view does not exist.

MiddlewareNotUsed
-----------------

The ``MiddlewareNotUsed`` exception is raised when a middleware is not
used in the server configuration.

ImproperlyConfigured
--------------------

The ``ImproperlyConfigured`` exception is raised when Django is
somehow improperly configured -- for example, if a value in ``settings.py``
is incorrect or unparseable.

FieldError
----------

The ``FieldError`` exception is raised when there is a problem with a
model field. This can happen for several reasons:

    - A field in a model clashes with a field of the same name from an
      abstract base class
    - An infinite loop is caused by ordering
    - A keyword cannot be parsed from the filter parameters
    - If a field cannot be determined from a keyword in the query
      parameters
    - If a join is not permitted on the specified field
    - If a field name is invalid
    - If a query contains invalid order_by arguments

Database Exceptions
===================

Django wraps the standard database exceptions ``DatabaseError`` and
``IntegrityError`` so that your Django code has a guaranteed common
implementation of these classes. These database exceptions are
provided in ``django.db``.

The Django wrappers for database exceptions behave exactly the same as
the underlying database exceptions. See `PEP 249 - Python Database API
Specification v2.0`_ for further information.

.. _`PEP 249 - Python Database API Specification v2.0`: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0249/

Python Exceptions
=================

Django raises built-in Python exceptions when appropriate as well. See
the Python `documentation`_ for further information on the built-in
exceptions.
