first post so be gentle.
I am trying to display a static image in django. I can upload the image to my media directory but when I try to display it I get a nothing. If I copy the url to the browser I get ...
Page not found (404)
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/Will_and_Matt.jpg
Raised by: django.views.static.serve
detail.py
...
<img src="{{ student.photo.url }}" class="img-responsive">
...
model.py
class Student(models.Model):
photo = models.FileField( blank=True, null=True)
project urls.py
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
url(r'^opencmis/', include('opencmis.urls')),
]
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_URL)
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_URL)
settings.py
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
My update form works as it created the media folder and places images in it.
The URL pattern seems to match /media as it doesn't give an error there it just doesn't display the image.
Any ideas?
document_root=settings.STATIC_URL should be document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT and similar for MEDIA_ROOT. You want the filesystem path in there, not the URL.

Hope you are all having a very good Friday!
I am running a django project on nginx, and my project is each time going into this url - https://sitename.com/internal-nginx-static-location_uat/project_name/static/images/success.svg
I didn't configure this internal-nginx-static, and If I load the same project on another website, it works fine, is it something I can handle in code, or I have make changes in server conf.
Here is my URL.py Files
from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.urls import path, include
urlpatterns = [
path('', include('portal.urls')),
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
and settings file
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(DATA_DIR, 'static')
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
Im trying to configure my static files in django.
I've set
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "media")
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/")
and when I upload a photo via admin panel it appears in the folder I want ("src/media") but I cant access it via URL that is
Page not found (404)
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://web/media/picture.jpg
Im not sure if it's not a fault of wrong URL because it's on localhost
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
in urls.py were the solution for the problem
I'm new to Django and Python.I want to display a link to my files stored in my static folder.Here is the required code from settings.py:
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'static')
MEDIA_URL = "/media/"
When I access these files through my admin I get the following url displayed in my browser:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/filename.pdf
Hence what I tried is to give a link to the file in my HTML code :
File
But instead of displaying http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/filename.pdf it just displays /media/filename.pdf which results in an error.
Adding localhost:8000/ before {{instance.docFile.url}} also didn't work.
Why isn't this working?What is the correct way to display link to my files?
Let me know if anything else is required.Thank you.
in your urls.py
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
# ... the rest of your URLconf goes here ...
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
in your settings.py
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'uploads')
MEDIA_URL = '/uploads/'
Then in your template
File
If you want know refer the docs Manage static files
The error is coming because your file is not stored in media.it is stored in static but your database store media URL. change your MEDIA_ROOT (given below) and try to upload one more time
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
Don't put slash
:
File
Please see the Django setting MEDIA_ROOT documentation to better understand what your trying to do.
First MEDIA_ROOT and STATIC_ROOT must have different values.
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static")
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "media")
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
See static files documentation for more details.
Second, You need to add these settings to your base urls.py.
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
# ... the rest of your URLconf goes here ...
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
If you want to use {{ MEDIA_URL }} in your templates, add 'django.template.context_processors.media' in the 'context_processors' option of TEMPLATES in settings.py.
At the top of your HTML page add {% load static %} then to display your media:
<img src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ docFile }}" alt="test">
Please take your time with the Django Documentation, trust me it will help and also checkout the File upload settings
I have a django project.
In order to set up my media url, I followed the django doc Django doc - Managing static files:
For example, if your MEDIA_URL is defined as /media/, you can do this by adding the following snippet to your urls.py:
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
# ... the rest of your URLconf goes here ...
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
my settings.py:
# ....
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
BASE_URL = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000'
# ...
MEDIA_URL_REL = '/media/'
MEDIA_URL = BASE_URL + MEDIA_URL_REL
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media/')
my urls.py:
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
# ...
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
My uploaded files are found in media root, but when I access media url [ http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/proof/img.pdf]for it, it returns HTTP 404 NOT FOUND.
Please don't make any url with hard coded. This is more than bad practice.
BASE_URL = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000'
You can't write like that.
Your solution,
settings.py
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
urls.py
urlpatterns = [
.......
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
Hope this works.
I have my media_root path set to
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'media')
MEDIA_URL = 'media/'
with my project structured as so
Project_Name/
media/
profiles/
App_Name
when I try to reference the images in my profiles/ directory, I get 404 no resource found errors.
src="{{ MEDIA_URL }}{{ result.photo }}">
This resolves to http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/profiles/image1.jpg cannot be found. Am I missing absolute path, I am using DJango 1.4, I do not have the media root set in my urls.py but I didn't with my STATIC_URL definitions and I am able to find my static resources?
This is the main path of your project
PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '..')
SITE_ROOT = PROJECT_ROOT
In here, the system call your media folder path where uploaded images store
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, 'media')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
In here are your static files where css/js/img/ ... store
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, 'static')
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
Additional location for staticfiles
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(SITE_ROOT, 'staticfiles'),
)
urls.py
from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.contrib import admin
from django.contrib.staticfiles.urls import staticfiles_urlpatterns
from project_name import settings
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
.........
.........
) + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
urlpatterns += staticfiles_urlpatterns()
Here is the answer
Images from media folder is not displaying django template
