"GET /logout/ HTTP/1.0" 405 Method Not Allowed

[rodrigolfh]

I have a working django-desktop served over nginx as a proxy server and uvicorn as the asgi app server.

I installed it through pip.

Everything works, but the Logout button from the app. The logout button from django admin does work as it leads to https://192.168.xxx.xxx/logout/ and I get a message as "GET /logout/ HTTP/1.0" 405 Method Not Allowed

I am aware that since django 5.0 (I am using dijango 5.02) you cannot use GET to logout because of security issues, and already tried to replace the logout button with a miniform that forces the use of POST in order to logout (in navigation_header.html), but it still uses GET.

Using VSCode, I already searched for every file that contains "Logout". This search includes my project folder and my 'venv' folder which at the same time includes helpdesk and all of its files. I tried to pinpoint what template is the one used (even though i think it's 'navigation_header.html') replacing every 'Logout' string in every helpdesk template to 'Logout1', 'Logout2' and so on, hoping I would see the modified string in the rendered site, all with no avail.

I also tried changing the origin of the LogoutView imported to the one from django.contrib.auth, and put a print statement just at the start of every method to see which method is the one that's being called but nothing (I got debg=True btm).

It really baffles me that I cannot pinpoint where the problem is... and also where does the 'Logout' string from the nav-bar drop-down comes from? Is there a .capitalize() method used over a 'logout' string somewhere else?

Hi @rodrigolfh, I tried to apply the fix in my local demodesk and it seems to work (see my PR #1181).

Are you sure the changes you made are correctly applied on your server ?
