I recently change my email from plain text to html. This includes the registration verification email, as well as any other email regarding updates and notifications.
It works fine in development, but not in production. In my production setting, django is unable to find the image and gives me the following error: Exception Type: FileNotFoundErrorException Value: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/media/logo256.png' I have tried everything and is now out of ideas, hoping someone here ran into the same issue and can help me please. Here is my code from the views.py file: def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): form = self.form_class(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): user = form.save(commit=False) user.user_email = user.email user.is_active = False # Deactivate account till it is confirmed user.save() # Email with html template from_email = settings.DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL to_email = user.email subject = 'Activate Your Telos Central Account' image_path = 'media' image_name = 'logo256.png' file_path = os.path.join(image_path, image_name) text_content = "Text content: Hi {{ user.username }}, Please click on the link to confirm your registration, https://{{ domain }}{% url 'activate' uidb64=uid token=token %} If you think, it's not you, then just ignore this email." html_tmp = get_template('email/account_activation_email.html') ctx = { 'user': user, 'domain': 'teloscentral.com', 'uid': urlsafe_base64_encode(force_bytes(user.pk)), 'token': account_activation_token.make_token(user), } html_content = html_tmp.render(ctx) msg = EmailMultiAlternatives(subject, text_content, from_email, [to_email]) msg.attach_alternative(html_content, 'text/html') msg.content_subtype = 'html' # set the primary content to be text/html msg.mixed_subtype = 'related' # it is an important part that ensures embedding of an image # attached image to the message before sending the mail with open(file_path, mode='rb') as f: image = MIMEImage(f.read()) msg.attach(image) image.add_header('Content-ID', '<{name}>'.format(name=image_name)) image.add_header('Content-Disposition', 'inline', filename=image_name) msg.send() # Show message that mail has been sent messages.success(request, ('Please Confirm your email to complete registration.')) # Go to login page return redirect('login') return render(request, self.template_name, {'form': form}) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
