This isn't a Django question at all, but purely an nginx one. I don't
know nginx at all, but it's clear from the config file above that you
have never told it where to look for the files to serve from /media1/
- ie where is the actual physical location on the server.
(Not related, but it is an extremely bad idea to put your own Django
project - and its media files - within the site-packages directory.)
