I'm using django admin site (v1.9.6) and recently installed file-browser for managing images and documents. I followed installation steps and file-browser is shown in admin interface but I cant upload images and documents. When trying to access them 404 errors shows up (also thumbnails are not shown in file-browser page):
Page not found (404)
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/uploads/aaaaaaaaaaalula.png
But the file is there, if I make
ls media/uploads/aaaaaaaaaaalula.png
it shows the file, so it's uploaded.
my settings.py:
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media') MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/media/admin/'
and url.py
from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
from django.contrib import admin
from filebrowser.sites import site
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^admin/filebrowser', include(site.urls)),
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
url(r'^$', include(admin.site.urls)),
]
Thanks in advance for help.

Ok, here is the solution:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/howto/static-files/#serving-static-files-during-development
The issue was that I was testing django-filebrowser with development server
You are not putting url for displaying image.
In setting.py-
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "media/")
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
In URLs.py--
Url(r'^media/(?^<path>.*)$','django.views.static.serve',{'document_root':
settings.MEDIA_ROOT,}),
I think it can help you
You can do:
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.conf import settings
urlpatterns = [
#your urls
]
if settings.DEBUG: # will be 'True' in development
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)

So, I'm trying to follow Django documentation about the static files and media files
I have a clean Django installation and I want to add the media folder. What I've done? I've changed the urls.py inside the project (not the app) and the settings.py as below
settings.py
STATIC_URL = 'static/'
MEDIA_URL = 'media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = BASE_DIR / "media"
STATICFILES_DIRS = [
BASE_DIR / "static",
]
urls.py
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
But I got the
Page not found (404) Request Method: GET Request
URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000/ Using the URLconf defined in
web_project.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:
admin/ ^media/(?P.*)$ The empty path didn’t match any of these.
I've also tried adding the 'django.template.context_processors.media' into TEMPLATES and using os as below
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
STATICFILES_DIRS = (os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'),)
but nothing changes
What it could be?
Getting this error is the expected behavior because when you add a path to urlpatterns in urls.py in your example + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT) you'll no more get access to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ (it just renders a “Congratulations!” page, with a rocket taking off. It worked! ) unless you specify a view to this empty path (which you didn't)
In your case, there is no URL leading to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ . the only paths you get access to are :
1- http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ for the admin page
2 - http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/(?P<path>.*)$ to access you media files
for example, if you have an image img.png in media folder you can access http://127.0.0.1:8000/media/img.png and view your image
The static function is only intended to serve static files during development and is not suitable for serving user-uploaded media files.
Try to make a condition check that whether DEBUG=True or not so:
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
]
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
Im trying to host my site on heroku on my localhost my project is fine with no issues , on deploying it all I get are blank pages (I inspected it and elements are shown but nothing is visible on webpage)apart from admin pages I installed all the necessary packages as I was deploying that is to say gunicorn and whitenoise as well as setting STATIC_ROOT and STATICFILES_STORAGE . I at first set DISABLE_COLLECTSTATIC = 1 and later set it to 0 when deploying, I have failed to see any error that might be causing the issue
some of my files for context
settings
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static_dev')]
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'
urls
from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.conf.urls import handler404
urlpatterns = [
path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
path('users/', include('user.urls')),
path('users/', include('django.contrib.auth.urls')),
path('accounts/', include('allauth.urls')),
path('', include('pages.urls')),
path('store/', include('store.urls')),
#path("djangorave/", include("djangorave.urls", namespace="djangorave")),
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
#error handlers
handler404 = 'store.views.error_404'
#handler500 = 'store.views.my_custom_error_view'
This is a duplicate of Django Ckeditor image browser not finding images, but I believe the answer there is wrong (there is an obvious bug in it with an undefined variable, not to mention the lack of Python indentation).
I'm using Django CKEditor 5.0.3 and Django 1.9.6. I am able to upload images in my admin, but they appear as a red X within the admin and do not appear on my site.
I'm still struggling a bit with MEDIA_ROOT and whatnot, but I think I have it right:
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static"),
)
MEDIA_URL = "image_upload/"
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "image_upload")
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = 'uploads/'
CKEDITOR_IMAGE_BACKEND = "pillow"
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_SLUGIFY_FILENAME = False
My urls.py, including my attempt at cleaning up the linked answer:
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from django.contrib import admin
from mainsite.views import HomepageView, AboutView, ContactView
from django.contrib.staticfiles.urls import staticfiles_urlpatterns
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls, name="admin"),
url(r'^$', HomepageView.as_view(), name="homepage"),
url(r'^about/', AboutView.as_view(), name="about"),
url(r'^contact/', ContactView.as_view(), name="contact"),
url(r'^blog/', include("blog.urls", namespace="blog")),
url(r'^ckeditor/', include('ckeditor_uploader.urls')),
]
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += [
url(r'^media/(?P<path>.*)$',
'django.views.static.serve', {
'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT,
}
),
]
urlpatterns += staticfiles_urlpatterns()
Using CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = 'uploads/' makes django-ckeditor to upload an image to /media/uploads/, like:
settings.py:
STATICFILES_DIRS = [
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static/'),
]
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media/')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = 'uploads/'
When using the Django's dev server, static files are served by default but not media files, so you can force the server to consider them, the url configuration below should work.
urls.py:
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf import settings
from django.views.static import serve
from .views import HomeView
urlpatterns = [
url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
url(r'^$', HomeView.as_view(), name='home'),
url(r'^ckeditor/', include('ckeditor_uploader.urls')),
# serving media files only on debug mode
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += [
url(r'^media/(?P<path>.*)$', serve, {
'document_root': settings.MEDIA_ROOT
}),
]
The missing function patterns from the old example was an old function I believe used on Django 1.6 or 1.7.
After installing ckeditor, perform the following :
In Settings.py:
add 'ckeditor' and 'ckeditor_uploader' into INSTALLED_APPS.
Add CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = 'uploads_directory/'
(Do not join MEDIA_ROOT with the upload_directory, ckeditor will take the MEDIA_ROOT as its root upload directory)
In your models files:
USE : from ckeditor_uploader import RichTextUploadingField and modify your required model field to type RichTextUploadingField
In urls.py:
add re_path(r'^ckeditor/', include('ckeditor_uploader.urls')) into urlpatterns
Using Django 1.8 with django-ckeditor 5.3.0, I was getting the exact same symptoms as those above (uploading files worked, but the src attribute of the <img> tag was set incorrectly, causing a red "X" in the preview and broken image links upon publication).
In my case, however, I didn't have to change anything in urls.py. My problem was that I had:
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = os.path.join(MEDIA_ROOT, "ckeditor")
So my mistake was giving CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH the path where I wanted ckeditor to upload to (logical, no?).
The fix was to change the above line to
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = "ckeditor"
In hindsight I can see how this allows django-ckeditor the ability to use the MEDIA_ROOT for uploading and the MEDIA_URL for serving. Still I thought someone should say it: "Don't use the full path when setting CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH!"
I hope this saves others some time.
For Django 4 the steps to enable image or file upload in django-ckeditor is:
1. Install django-ckeditor
pip install django-ckeditor
2. Update settings.py
Add file upload path:
CKEDITOR_UPLOAD_PATH = "uploads/"
Add ckeditor,ckeditor_uploader in INSTALLED_APPS:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
# plugins
'ckeditor',
'ckeditor_uploader'
]
3. Update urls.py
Add path('ckeditor/', include('ckeditor_uploader.urls')) in urlpatterns:
urlpatterns = [
...
path('ckeditor/', include('ckeditor_uploader.urls')),
] + static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
4. Use RichTextUploadingField in models
from ckeditor_uploader.fields import RichTextUploadingField
class ResearchTopic(models.Model):
title = models.CharField(max_length=200)
description = RichTextUploadingField()
Tested with:
Django==4.0.4
django-ckeditor==6.4.0
References:
django-ckeditor documentation
The #Mohammed-tayab's solution worked for me with a little modification:
from ckeditor_uploader.fields import RichTextUploadingField
Sorry...this is a long question...
I am learning django plus I am also new to python...so expect me to stupid as of now. I am running python 3.3 and Django 1.6.2.
I am working on setting urls via static files. I have also run collectstatic. I was told some of these commands may be obsolete for python 3.3, (I posted a comment on youtube and they said go back to python 2.7
I am following an online tutorial which is doing this on python 2.7 but I want to do it on python3.3(I guess I like making things difficult for me). when I run the code on the machine through cmd I get P/1.1 404 1712 error.
(https://www.youtube.com/watchv=8t80DMAAps8&list=PLEsfXFp6DpzRgedo9IzmcpXYoSeDg29Tx&index=7)
Even though I am stuck I would like to mention these tutorials are helpful...thanks to the uploader.
back to work...the error I receive says module not found and the exception location direct me urls.py line which 22...which is:
document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
this is a part of:
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL,
document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL,
document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
I did play around with it and found that if I comment the settings.DEBUG code block the file works(but doesn't load css files) so I tweaked the path on settings.py but the debug still says url not found while accessing css path. I tried changing the url manually on the browser to the exact location of the file but still....nothing ( :'( I thought I was smart... but alas!).
Let me know if you have any other questions and THANK YOU!! :)
Also, this question might get side-tracked since there is a bigger(at least for me :(...) problem to solve...but can someone suggest any book or a video tutorial for a beginner to get very good at MVC and django in python?....Thanks :)
This is how my settings.py looks:
# Static files (CSS, JavaScript, Images)
# https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/howto/static-files/
STATIC_URL = '/whattheheck/static/'
# Template location
TEMPLATE_DIRS = {
os.path.join(os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR), "whattheheck", "static", "templates"),
}
if DEBUG:
MEDIA_URL = '/whattheheck/media/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR), "whattheheck", "static", "static-only")
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR), "whattheheck", "static", "media")
STATICFLIES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR), "whattheheck", "static", "static")
)
And this is how urls.py is:
from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls import static
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
# Examples:
url(r'^$', 'signups.views.home', name='home'),
# url(r'^blog/', include('blog.urls')),
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)
if settings.DEBUG:
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL,
document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL,
document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
I'm using, in a Django 1.3 project, a CDN for media resources like images, css and such. I have a problem serving admin resources, what I made is:
In settings.py:
MEDIA_URL = 'http://cdn.test.com/'
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/admin_media/'
In INSTALLED_APPS:
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
And in urls.py:
(r'^admin_media/(.*)', 'django.views.static.serve',
{'document_root' : 'django/contrib/admin/media/',
'show_indexes' : True}),
Looking at the admin HTML I see something like /admin_media/css/base.css but all resources return http 404. I can't understand what is wrong.
Many thanks.
Try the following:
from django.contrib.staticfiles.urls import staticfiles_urlpatterns
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
# (... other urls ...)
)
urlpatterns += staticfiles_urlpatterns()
Also, the document_root you refer to in your urls.py should be an absolute path: this might also cause some issues. The above should replace this for your Django version, though.
