I am going thru the sample blog application introduced in the book
"Python Web Development with Django (covers Django 1.0)".
Before getting too deep into the book, I decided I wanted to first
ensure that the application will render in apache since I want to
include an image at the bottom of the blog posts (I have been hacking
spaghetti code in php for a couple of years now, but now, am intent on
coding neatly with python).
The blog application works partially in that apache renders the text
contents, but not the image.
Note the access.log contents in the end ( "GET /media/img/
people_rose.jpg HTTP/1.1" 404 2001)
I have read so much good stuff about Django that I want to dive into
it full speed ahead, but now I am stuck in serving a simple image.
Help?
