Anyone Can help me with solving this problem ? I would be greatfull

#2

most likely a firewall problem, are you using django in a corporate environment, or at home?

#3

im using home version i think and I got my firewall and anti virus totally off

#4

Try a different port such as 8000 or 8888 or something like that. It’s possible you have a different program running that is sitting on 8080.
e.g. runserver localhost:8000

Tried it and even changed the default port but its still the same

#6

And you’re running this locally on your PC, right? Are you running it from the command shell, PowerShell, or somewhere else?

Thanks for your help sir . tried another port and it worked!
