Static media under the development server worked without a problem for me for a few months, and still does but calling:
{{ modelxx.objectyy.url }} to get a file url seemed to add full path out of nowhere instead of relative path. Now /site_media/{{ modelxx.objectyy.url }} gives double prefix of : /home/trak/media/home/trak/media/dir/ filename ; my plugin that uses this URL is now broken. Removing the / site_media/ prefix and using just fileurl = {{ modelxx.objectyy.url }} would seem to work and gives the exact path /home/trak/media/dir/ filename, but miraculously does not work. Perhaps calling /home/ directly perms problem? Anyway the only way I can get the url to work is by keeping the /site_media/ prefix and pasting in a static extension: /site_media/dirxx/filename I am at a complete loss but know that originally the combination / site_media/{{ modelxx.objectyy.url }} worked fine and now the {{ .url }} usage seems to have thrown in full path. I was trying some experiments with external apps and app some includes but I do not see how this would affect any thing. I did turn off USE_I18n in settings file. Here are my 3 url settings, and below is most of my settings file: Is there a setting that forces the {{.url }} call to give a full path rather than relative? ANY thoughts would be appreciated.
