Try: ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = 'http://media.mysite.org/media/'
Web site example always show just a path and not a site name, but source code shows it can be full URL with site name. # URL prefix for admin media -- CSS, JavaScript and images. Make sure to use a # trailing slash. # Examples: "http://foo.com/media/";, "/media/". ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/media/' I guess I'd always assumed that this prefix was added on top of MEDIA_URL, but apparently not. Thus if on different site, looks like you need to state host as well.
