IMPORTANT NOTE:
Hi all,
Please note that you will have to setup your static and media files as well - I'd suggest using Amazon S3.
Here is a tutorial on how to setup Amazon S3:
czcams.com/video/JQVQcNN0cXE/video.html
You will also have to setup your database as well - I'd recommend using a PostgreSQL database.
Here is a tutorial on how to setup a PostgreSQL database with Render for FREE:

@@CloudWithDjango Could you make a video showing how to deploy a static django website on vercel?
Thank you for your suggestion. For more information on static files please read the pinned comment or you can check out my static file video tutorials with cloudinary (on the channel).
hi, my django project has react as frontend. i tried exactly how you did on the video & it was deployed but the pages are not rendering. it only shows white page with nothing in it. again, I did exactly how you said. how do I get my react routes deployed?
have you tried doing it with linode?
Thank you man. Is this gonna work with static files?
My pleasure!
You would need to either use whitenoise or Amazon S3 for static files. More information is available under the pinned comment.
Hey, Thanks for the video, I had one question.
Referencing it to your case. What if we dont have the dev file and put the first elevate file onto github?
It should still work right?
Hi,
It's a pleasure!
It depends on your overall application structure I would say. Best way to find out, is to try and see.
@@CloudWithDjango Thanks for responding. I did try but ended up with the following error:

Hey, I am using opencv in project and when I deploy on vercel this shows data too long error, if possible then please help
Hi,
When you deploy a project. It is advised to not deploy a full project with multiple dependencies. I would suggest that you start with minimal packages and work your way up.
Good luck!
I have my database in my sql on local host, Do i have to deply that seperately?
If yes then could u suggest me any video for it
Hi,
You don't need to deploy separately.
There is a database mastery video on my channel that will assist you.

Thank you for great video!
I deployed my django project successfully, but later on when I added django rest framework to my project and committed to github, my app crashed on vercel. I got error messages that says "no module named 'rest framework' ".
When I pip installed rest framework, virtual environment was active, I also included it to requirements.txt and to my settings in installed apps.
I can't find solution on the web, do you have ideas why it is happening?
Hi Santiago,
My pleasure, I'm glad that my tutorial was of value to you.
Thank you for the detail.
This is most likely because you are using a newer rest_framework package version which could be in conflict with Vercel's compatibility. Sometimes Vercel takes time to catch up with the latest modules and packages.
I'd suggest deploying your django app with the rest_framework package on either Render (it is much more reliable and production-ready than Vercel)
Render tutorial ->

Good luck!
Got it. Thank you so much, I appreciate your help:)

Hello bro please reply i had implemented a real estate website in django with mangodb db database for login and signup and some other works is any extra setting required for deployment of project with database in vercel please tell
Hi,
I would suggest that you take a look at the other deployment videos on my channel or investigate further in regards to the Vercel docs.
Good luck!
Hi I have an important question, what if my Django runs on ASGI server instead of WSGI?
Hi,
Unfortunately, this video is only for WSGI. You'd probably need to do some extra reconfiguring of sorts for ASGI
Plz make a video on how to access postgres database on render I deployed my app successfully but I dont know how to check the tables
Hi Qais,
Thank you for reaching out and for your feedback.
You should be able to check everything that you need in Django admin in terms of your models.
So i deployed my website bt it's rendering only HTML can u help me how i can get access to terminal and run the collect static command???
Hi,
I would recommend using amazon s3 buckets. It's much easier to do it that way. I didn't use Vercel for that.
👍
does this work with POST API ? I tried but keep saying "Authenticating" only
The project here isn't based on API's so, I'd suggest reading the Vercel docs on additional information
thank you for the great tutoriel
but i have an error This Serverless Function has crashed. with 500 error
after searching i found that vercel doesn't support models and after getting deeper i also found that it supports models but the problem is in sqlite is that true!
Hi,
It's possible that your application is too large, and as a test you can change your database from sqlite to possibly postgres.
@@CloudWithDjango yep this you this what i'm trying to do
Helpfull video👍...but when i try to deploy very simple django restapi with image upload capability it gave me internal server error deterministic=True requires SQLite 3.8.3 or higher
Thank you! Please use another database such as postgres or mysql and not sqlite.
I am getting something from your voice, you studied in the UK for a while and lived there for a while but you are not originally from there. your accent is faint but still audible.
Bro thinks he's Sherlock Holmes 💀
Invalid request: `build` should be object
Hey there, everything worked fine until I pressed deploy and it showed me this error message, any idea how to solve it?
Hi,
Please check your packages (start simple) and double check your settings.
If you are still struggling please see my video tutorial with PythonAnywhere below (it should serve as a better alternative):
czcams.com/video/xtnUwvjOThg/video.html
Good luck!
I get 'deterministic=True requires SQLite 3.8.3 or higher' what should I do
Hi,
Please use MySQL or PostgreSQL as your database. Additional information is provided in the pinned comment.
Sir, it deployed but why does my css doesn't apply? although I used internal CSS.
Hi,
Please read the pinned comment.
I have successfully deployed but the Image in the website is missing.
What should I do ?
Hi,
Please read the pinned comment on Amazon s3.
Does it work with a django rest framework project?
Hi,
The best way to know would be try and see with your project.
is this SSL? and can i use react as frontend
Hi,
No, you would need to use an SSL certificate. You can but you need to configure react in certain way for it work.
Hi, cool video! Followed all your steps but Im getting a 500 error when trying to deploy with message: Unknown application error occurred Runtime.Unknown
Hi Francisco,
Thank you for your feedback.
If you are struggling to deploy your app on Vercel. I would suggest either trying PythonAnywhere or Render. I have a few tutorials on those alternatives on the channel.
Good luck!
The error 500 happened for me because I hadn't turned DEBUG=False
Good
Thank you!
I got error: OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system in Django
when I tried to upload image in django production vercel. How can I solve it?
Hi,
Please double check your configuration settings. I'd also recommend that you make sure that your application is working locally.
Additionally, I'd suggest deploying on your first time with minimal packages.
thank you for your effort ! it's not sending me any code verification .. is there any solution to this? and what other hosts can I deploy my django project to for free ?
Hi,
No problem. I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean with code verification? Perhaps your application has unique requirements, that other platforms can only satisfy. So, I wouldn't know about that.
Yes, you can deploy to Railway, Render or PythonAnywhere for Free.
I have video tutorials on Render and PythonAnywhere on the channel, so perhaps that will assist you.
Good luck!
@@CloudWithDjango it seems that most free plans on host servers are limited like pythonanywhere and render, are there other sites that provide larger space for example 2GB?
Yes, all free options on all platforms will have a limit.
You will just need to try what is available (Railway, Render, PythonAnywhere), and if your project is too large, then you will have to upgrade your tier.
Hi, im getting "A Serverless Function has exceeded the unzipped maximum size of 250 MB." ERROR, could u help me?
Hi,
I think your application is too large. I'd suggest cutting down on it's size (if possible) or perhaps deploying with PythonAnywhere or Render. I do happen to have tutorials on the channel to help if you plan to use either of these alternatives.
Good luck!
can we use static files in the django app
Hi,
Yes, but you would need to use Amazon S3 or whitenoise to handle them. Please see the pinned comment for further information.
not really happy with the copying part, passing some secret variables maybe?
Secret variables? I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean. We use configuration settings to setup our application in Vercel.
I am getting error ...it's saying needed sqllite version 3.8.3 or higher. How to fix it
Hi,
Please either update your Django version OR use a postgres/mysql database from Render or Railway instead of the default sqlite database.
Bro how much time it will take for deployment
Hi,
It shouldn't take long. Please make sure that you set everything up correctly.
@@CloudWithDjango bro please make a vedio for updated version of python 3.10.11
When i wrote ..pip freeze> requirements.txt , i m getting error that -- pip is not recognise
Hi,
Most likely this issue will arise if you haven't installed Python correctly on your system/device.
hi, i got error like this "A Serverless Function has exceeded the unzipped maximum size of 250 MB" i use python3.10. its okay?
Hi,

what if i have database then does it work
Hi,
You would need to test your application to find out. That being said, you shouldn't have any issues.
Can i integrate Adsence on free tier?
Hi,
It's unlikely that you would be able to do so, since you would need a stable website up and running, since the free tier is limited.
Can i host django restapi with sqlite in vercel ?
Hi,
it should be possible. I would recommend giving it a try and seeing how it goes.
What if we have more than one endpoints??
Hi,
If you have more than one endpoint, you are going to have to modify your application and structure, and do some external research.

@@CloudWithDjango I fixed it at my own.. Pls tell me how much db load vercel can handle and how much storage is provided
amazing!!!!! but im getting error of 404
Thank you.
The error 404 means page could not be found, so I would suggest that first check that your application has no issues locally.
If you are still struggling. I do have other deployment tutorials on Render and PythonAnywhere (on the channel).
Hi, do I understand correctly that vercel is not able to save media files (so when I added a photo through the admin, I can't view it (locally I can, through vercel - no))
Page not found (404) ... The current path, media/media/bike_HuDgbW8.webp, matched the last one.
Hi,
Vercel itself doesn't have a built-in media storage feature; it's primarily a platform for deploying and hosting web applications. When you deploy your application to Vercel, it is generally expected that you handle media storage elsewhere, such as using cloud storage services like Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or others.
So, I'd recommend utilising Amazon S3 for this use case. You can find more information in the pinned comment.
Good luck!
@@CloudWithDjango , thanks you for such a detailed answer!

How to rectify 500: INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR
Hi,
Please check your packages. Adding too many packages for your first deployment can cause issues. I'd recommend starting with minimal packages. Just to gain the confidence of deploying to Vercel. Also, it's a trial and error process. You will need to see what works and what doesn't - package wise
Please also double check your steps, since you need to be precise in deploying your application
@@CloudWithDjango Thanks for replying

@@SrikrishnanR No problem. Yes, the static files won't work because you need to serve them with Vercel or with Amazon s3 buckets. That is something extra to work on.
