AttributeError: '__proxy__' object has no attribute 'regex'
<p>My urls.py looks like this; can anyone explain where the error (AttributeError: '<strong>proxy</strong>' object has not attribute 'regex') is coming from? Because the error message isn't giving me any place where the error is coming from, so I'm really confused. Thanks! </p>
