can not save pages any more in wagtail


when clicking publish or save draft I got this error wagtail.core.models.Page.DoesNotExist: Page matching query does not exist. this happens only with old pages, the newly created pages are being able to be created and saved without any errors

NB: the new pages do not have children pages yet trying to find out what is causing this error despite I did not override the save method any suggestion or hint will be very helpful thank you

here the traceback:

wagtail.core.models.DoesNotExist
wagtail.core.models.Page.DoesNotExist: Page matching query does not exist.

Solution

  • Finally resolved it we should not use ParentalKey with a Page model (we were using it in GOPart model which is a Page model, changing it to ForeignKey resolved the error and now we can save the HomePage

    class MyModel(RoutablePageMixin, Page, Orderable):
    
        parent_page_types: list = []
    
        company = ParentalKey(
            "home.HomePage",
            on_delete=models.SET_NULL,
            verbose_name=_("Company"),
            null=True,
            blank=False,
        )
    

    changing it to:

    class MyModel(RoutablePageMixin, Page):
    
        parent_page_types: list = []
    
        company = models.ForeignKey(
            "home.HomePage",
            on_delete=models.SET_NULL,
            verbose_name=_("Company"),
            null=True,
            blank=False,
        )
    

    a Page can not be Orderable
