Hi [theprateekgoyal2](https://forum.djangoproject.com/u/theprateekgoyal2),

I have an app running on vercel and I remember having a similar error during deployment. Please try removing “psycopg2” package from your requirements.txt file. Keep only “psycopg2-binary” package.

Thanks for reverting. I have tried it both ways, keeping the psycopg2 package and even removing it. But it gives me the same error message. I can share the requirements.txt file if that may help-

From you requirements.txt remove this `psycopg2==2.9.7` only `psycopg2-binary==2.9.8` is all you need.

If I remember correctly Vercel is a serverless hosting platform. Django can work on it but platforms like Django are not well suited for serverless. Unless perhaps you only use Django Rest Framework and no frontend but even then my advice would be to find another hosting partner.

Well there are many, even Digital Ocean which is popular cloud service also provide you $200 Credits which is enough to try all the services to use for 2 months after that it starts charging for the services.  
PythonAnywhere is also one of the good option to try.

I checked digital ocean and python anywhere. But in digital ocean its paid, and right now I cant afford to buy it. and python anywhere supports python 3.9 my project is 3.11 and also it failed in my case maybe because I did something wrong. if there is any good tutorial can you share that?

the requirements.txt file in the GitHub repository. Here I have removed this

but on GitHub its showing this, maybe that can be an error -

For a system that needs to run in production there is no good free option. For development and testing you can run it locally on your own machine and you could use a service like ngrok to expose your server to the internet.

Hey, my project deployed successfully on Vercel. but there is still an issue with static files. The path and all are all correct but I don’t know why it says file not found 404.

this is the console view-

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/djangoproject/original/3X/f/9/f97fa70c23c04c20a24b877fcf2011f0f2895c6d.png)

and this the part of settings.py file which contains static root -

```auto
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
# STATICFILES_DIRS = [
# os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'expenseswebsite', 'static'),
# ]
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')
# print(STATIC_ROOT)

```

the project structure-

Did you run `manage.py collectstatic` command?

Also in your root urls.py update code according to this sample below

```auto
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.conf import settings

urlpatterns = [
    ...
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT) + static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)

```
