Your regular expression in the urls.py file seems to be wrong. Try using this instead:

url(r'^handles3downloads/(\w+)/$', handles3downloads),

You’re passing parameter string to the view, and the regex is matching integers.

Jordan is correct, there is a problem with your urls.py. You can tell by the error. You are trying to get a reverse on ‘myapp.views.handles3downloads’, but has that reverse string been identified? Try this.

urlpatterns = patterns('',
     url(r'^handles3downloads/([^/]+)/$', handles3downloads,
     name='myapp.views.handles3downloads'),
)
