Thanks for the fast response, no I was not actually using it, I
thought it got added automatically to any template being rendered. But
after I do that:
return render_to_response('index.html', renderParams,
RequestContext(request))
I'm now getting the following error:
Exception Type: ImproperlyConfigured
Exception Value: Module "django.core.context_processors" does not
define a "media" callable request processor
Exception Location: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/
lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/template/context.py in
get_standard_processors, line 81
Looking at the source code, it certainly looks like it DOES provide a
'media' function (I have 0.96 installed):
def media(request):
"""
Adds media-related context variables to the context.
"""
return {'MEDIA_URL': settings.MEDIA_URL}
Well, if I can't get this working I suppose I can just stuff the
settings.MEDIA_URL variable into each template render by placing it
into the render dictionary myself each time, or worst-case I can hard-
code the media paths, but I'd still like to know why it's not working.
I've had nothing but headaches with MEDIA_URL and associated settings,
I tried for a long time to get static media serving on the dev server,
but it never worked.
