Django: ConnectionResetError: [Errno 54] Connection reset by peer

Question

Anytime when the program calls for either favicon.ico or any admin css files, I'm getting the ConnectionResetError: [Errno 54] Connection reset by peer

I'm using

Django==3.0.4
Python 3.6.1

For any of the below calls

"GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 404 2104
"GET /static/admin/css/fonts.css HTTP/1.1" 200 423
"GET /static/admin/css/changelists.css HTTP/1.1" 200 4096
"GET /static/admin/css/dashboard.css HTTP/1.1" 200 412
"GET /static/admin/css/widgets.css HTTP/1.1" 200 4096

I'm getting Traceback error like

Exception happened during processing of request from ('127.0.0.1', 60974)
Traceback (most recent call last):

ConnectionResetError: [Errno 54] Connection reset by peer

The program runs fine in the frontend without any issues. But this error in console is bugging me.

I've been having the same problem. The error was thrown after this line:

[01/Apr/2020 17:13:16] "GET /static/assets/img/logo-white.png HTTP/1.1" 200 9928

The image was loading fine on the front end and this was the template code:

<img src="{% static 'assets/img/logo-white.png' %}" width="50px" class="logo">

I added a closing slash to the tag and the error disappeared.

<img src="{% static 'assets/img/logo-white.png' %}" width="50px" class="logo" />

I wish i could explain why it worked, but it didn't - if someone can enlighten me, please do!

But leaving it here incase it helps anyone else.
