I made a symlink from /django/contrib/admin/media/ to my media- directory to solve this issue. it works, but it doesn´t seem clean - e.g., when I do "svn update" I guess I´m losing the changes to the media-directory.
is there any better solution? thanks, patrick Am 24.10.2006 um 19:22 schrieb patrickk: > > > Am 24.10.2006 um 19:11 schrieb orestis: > >> >> You mention dev-server, yet you talk about apache and lighttpd. >> >> If running the dev-server, you shouldn't do anything, since it >> figures >> out itself how to serve files. > > yes, but it looks for media-files in django/contrib/admin/media/ ... > I´d prefer not to switch my media-directory between development- and > production-mode since there are files uploaded by users ... and I´m > not able to see these files with the dev-server. > >> >> If you're running apache, either with mod_python or with mod_fcgi, >> you >> should just create a link to the /foo/bar/admin/media directory in >> your >> www directory. > > that´s done. in production-mode, I´m not having any problems. > > I´m sorry if there´s a misunderstanding. > my basic question is: how can I change the directory where the dev- > server looks for media-files? > > patrick > >> >> You then have to edit settings.py to tell the admin where to look for >> its media. >> >> >>> > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
