Question

Building an Employee application, After updating an Employee using a form, it just shows this error and the Url seems correct so I can really say where the error is coming from
I've crosschecked all my url patterns my views and my url in the form and also tried using the solution in this question, this gives me a bigger error
urls.py
urlpatterns = [
path('edit/<int:pk>/', views.edit, name = 'edit'),
]
views.py
#login_required(login_url='/accounts/login')
def edit(request, pk):
employ = get_object_or_404(Employee, id=pk)
logging.info(type(employ))
departments = Department.objects.all()
context = {
'employ': employ,
'departments':departments
}
if request.method == "POST":
first_name = request.POST['first_name']
last_name = request.POST['last_name']
name = last_name +' '+first_name
employee_id = request.POST['employee_id']
email = request.POST['email']
department = Department.objects.get(dept_name = request.POST['department'])
address = request.POST['address']
employment_type = request.POST['employment_type']
employment_status = request.POST['employment_status']
role = request.POST['role']
marital_status = request.POST['marital_status']
gender = request.POST['gender']
join_date = request.POST['join_date']
end_date = None if len(request.POST['end_date']) ==0 else request.POST['end_date']
location = request.POST['location']
credentials = request.POST['credentials']
passport = request.POST['passport']
hod = request.POST['hod']
phone_number = request.POST['phone_number']
date_of_birth = request.POST['date_of_birth']
date_added = datetime.now()
if Employee.objects.filter(employee_id = employee_id).exists() or Employee.objects.filter(email = email).exists():
messages.error(request, 'That ID/Email is Taken')
return redirect('edit')
else:
employee = Employee(first_name='first_name',last_name='last_name',email='email',

it's meant to be submitted and routed to edit.hmtl in case there's any error while submitting

Answer 1

When you redirect to the edit view, you need to pass the primary key.
return redirect('edit', pk=employ.pk)
As an aside, it's not recommended to access values from request.POST directly. Have a look at Django forms.
