Description
When one uses --nostatic with the runserver command, it masks the actual error, see the following example:
$ python manage.py runserver --nostatic
usage: manage.py runserver [-h] [--ipv6] [--nothreading] [--noreload] [--version] [--settings SETTINGS] [--pythonpath PYTHONPATH] [--no-color]
                           [--force-color] [--skip-checks]
                           [addrport]
manage.py runserver: error: unrecognized arguments: --nostatic
python manage.py runserver
CommandError: You must set settings.ALLOWED_HOSTS if DEBUG is False.
