Of course, the media you're saving is being processed by python, and
that's apache, if that config is right. Lighttpd is *serving* static
files, but upload is being done by apache.

Make sure the directory (and, just in case, it's parent) is writable by
the appropiate user or group. If unsure, set to 777 to see if it's a
permission problem, and don't forget to set it back to something more
secure once your test is done.

Have a look at apache logs (error logs specially) and make sure django
has DEBUG = True. If with DEBUG on you're still getting 500 pages (and
not a django error page), the problem will be reported in apache's error
log, scattered through a few lines, so remember to look further upwards
than the last line.

Be sure to write back with your results, even if they're good. We like
to know if we're helping or just dropping dumb lines :)

Good Luck,
