Retrofit-http 405 response?

Issue

I am trying to create a login page and i am using the django as backend. authentication used is token-based. i have tried to POST the username and password which gives me a 405 http code error which is not the case i expected. and also it says that it is not expecting GET method which i dint do. it works the right way in https://www.hurl.it/ .i have posted the images and code here. Please help !

LoginPresenter.java

subscription = RxUtil.io(restProvider.authenticate(userId, password))
                .subscribe(new Subscriber<JsonObject>() {
                    @Override
                    public void onCompleted() {
                        getMvpView().showProgress(false);
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onError(Throwable e) {
                        Timber.e(e);
                        getMvpView().showProgress(false);
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onNext(JsonObject jsonObject) {
                        Timber.d(jsonObject.toString());
                    }
                });

RestProvider.java

public interface RestProvider {

    @FormUrlEncoded
    @POST("/api-token-auth")
    Observable<JsonObject> authenticate(@Field("username") String user, @Field("password") String pass);

}

The interceptor log is

POST http://mylink.com/mypath http/1.1
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 52
username=myusername&password=mypassword
--> END POST (52-byte body)

The backend is Django and i am using Token based authentication. It works in hurl.it perfectly.

This is the timber log.

Solution

I have found the bug in my program. Actually this was the problem of my Url provided to the Restprovider class . It was supposed to be "/api-token-auth/" just a slash made all the difference. Thank you for all those who tried.
