First of all, you should set MEDIA_URL to '/media/' and Alias /media
as /var/www/django_projects/proj_name/media/ or use mod_rewrite. Then
you should instead request for {{ MEDIA_URL }}test.js not the
hardcoded /media/test.js. This requires that you have request context
processor activated and MEDIA_URL is available in the template context.
