Why app/admin in debug mode false give me Server Error 500
<p>I changed my server settings.py from <code>Debug = True</code> to <code>Debug = False</code>.</p>

<p>I can get <code>httpResponses</code> from my other app urls but <strong>I can't access the /admin url specifically</strong>, I get the Server Error (500)</p>

<p>I tried to change the <code>ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['my-app-name.herokuapp.com','*']</code> as other topics of this problem says but it didn't help me in my case.</p>

<p>(added '*' just for this question and to show that I tried it and it doesn't solve the problem)</p>
