Re: Cannot find ../django/contrib/admin/media

1. modpython is deprecated, use modwsgi
2. the development server serves static media, but the production Django does not.  You must configure Apache to serve STATIC_ROOT at STATIC_URL and to serve MEDIA_ROOT at MEDIA_URL, as they are specified in the settings.py file.  Look for modwsgi deployment instructions in the Django documents.

As a newbye I'm using django 1.4.3 under Mac OS X.
Reading the tutorials (and an Italian book on django by Marco Beri), I was able to set up my app 'home' using a legacy mysql db, and play  with it as admin by means of the server 'python manage.py runserver'. Nice layout indeed!
I modified my apache2 httpd.conf in order to run the same app adding:

VirtualHost *:8000>

    ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        <Location "/">
         SetHandler python-program
         PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
         PythonPath "['/home/vittorio','/home/vittorio/miosito/home'] + sys.pat$
         SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE home.settings
         PythonDebug On
        </Location>

</VirtualHost>

OR (an alternative httpd.conf)


WSGIScriptAlias / /home/vittorio/miosito/home/django.wsgi
WSGIPythonPath /home/vittorio/miosito/home

<Directory /home/vittorio/miosito/home/>
<Files django.wsgi>
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
</Files>
</Directory>


Both work  but their layout is simply awful, not at all elegant like that obtained by means of runserver.
My point is that I would like to fix this and have the same elegant layout of the standard python manage.py runserver

leafing thru this list I understand that I should have added an alias reference to the directory of the django media that im my case, according to the many mails (very old indeed, usually referring to django 1.0), should be
/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media
which simply does not exist (also under FreeBSD which I use too)

What wrong with it and how can I solve this problem

Ciao
