I got it to find the /media/ directory by adding the media folder to
inetpub/wwwroot directory. I had that when I initially created my
wsgi dll with isapi-wsgi. I tried changing the root folder to my real
root folder, but it did not affect anything. It required the media
folder in inet pub. I'm sure there's probably some way around it, but
for now it works. It does see my local template directory, after
all. I changed the base_site.html file and could see the changes. It
just could see the media file. All I can do is experiment and see if
django is going to be reliable in this configuration. Thanks.
