well at my side it works well on both *nix and windoof platforms... here is
what I use on my projects...
settings.py
--------------
import platform
import os
PROJECT_DIR = os.path.dirname( os.path.abspath(__file__))
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR, 'static')
-----------
urls.py
-----------------
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf import settings
urlpatterns = patterns('',
#urls for your project
(r'^static/(?P<path>.*)$', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT}),
)
------------
where i use a directory named 'static' residing in same folder, where i have
my settings.py .... can you please place 'print MEDIA_ROOT' inside your
settings.py and check the terminal the path is spilts out ? because your '-'
convention before '-\media' is sort confusing, and its missing before
manage.py and settings.py ---- is media folder residing really in the same
directory where settings.py ?
c:\dev
> -\proj
> __init__.py
> manage.py
> settings.py
> urls.py
> -\app
> -__init__.py
> -admin.py
> -models.py
> -views.py
> -\adminmedia
> -\media
> -\css
> -styles.css
> -\images
> -\templates
> -base.html
> -index.html
>
if 'print MEDIA_ROOT' spilts out a path different from your media folder,
then you know where is the problem ..
