Here is my symbolic link to what I believe is the admin media: media -> /usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/ media
Here's what's in that directory: a...@h2oamr:~/django/amr$ ls -lH media total 12 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 15 13:54 css drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Sep 15 13:54 img drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Sep 15 13:54 js and these directories appear to contain the admin media. Here's what's in settings.py # Absolute path to the directory that holds media. # Example: "/home/media/media.lawrence.com/" MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/amr/django/media' # URL that handles the media served from MEDIA_ROOT. Make sure to use a # trailing slash if there is a path component (optional in other cases). # Examples: "http://media.lawrence.com";, "http://example.com/media/"; MEDIA_URL = 'media/' # URL prefix for admin media -- CSS, JavaScript and images. Make sure to use a # trailing slash. # Examples: "http://foo.com/media/";, "/media/". ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/media/' I'm missing something, but don't get what I'm missing. tnx cmn On Nov 2, 3:20 pm, James <asnark....@gmail.com> wrote: > So your admin media (js, css, images, etc) isn't working? > > Try two things: > > 1.
