Thought this might help some.
I have it setup so my vhost takes care of static data (which i think
is the best option, or using a 2nd sever for serving static media)
My settings stuff:
MEDIA_ROOT = '/web/PROJECT/media/' <- change "PROJECT"
MEDIA_URL = '/'
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/admin-media/' <- this is a link to the django
admin media, the link is in the project media folder.
My Vhost setting:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.DOMAINNAME.com <- Change ..
DocumentRoot /web/PROJECT/media/ <- Change to ur project media
path
<Location "/">
SetHandler python-program
PythonPath "['/web'] + sys.path" <- change as well!
PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE PROJECT.settings <- change
"PROJECT" to urs.
PythonDebug Off
</Location>
LogLevel debug
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
<Directory /web/PROJECT/media/> # Or whatever you chose above <-
Change "PROJECT",
Options +FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
<Location "/admin-media/"> <- gets u the admin media from the link
you created
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Location "/website/"> <- This is in my media dir which holds
the css, javascript and media for the website
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Location "/favicon.ico">
SetHandler None
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
so to get to my css file which is in \web\PROJECT\media\website\css
\base.css
i call this in my template:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/website/css/base.css"
media="all"/>
