Hi all,

This could be improved in the sense that Django projects usually consist
of one or more apps - like this ...
|myproject
|---static
| (empty until you run manage.py collectstatic)
|---myproject
| settings.py
|---myapp_1
| models.py
| ---static
| myapp_1_picture.jpg
settings.py
import os
MYPROJECT_PATH = os.getcwd()
I don't think this is explicit enough. You need to be certain that the
directories are exact in relation to settings.py. This is slightly more
explicit ...
SETTINGS_FILE = os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
SETTINGS_DIR = os.path.split(SETTINGS_FILE)[0]
PROJECT_DIR = os.path.split(SETTINGS_DIR)[0]
There are a few different ways to do this in Python but this is the way
I first got it to work and I haven't bothered to improve it.
DEBUG = True
***
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(MYPROJECT_PATH, 'static')
This is where collectstatic puts all the files you cleverly organise
into your various STATICFILES_DIRS directories.
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (STATIC_ROOT,)
Instead of this, you need a myproject/myapp_1/static for pictures etc
STATICFILES_DIRS = (os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR, 'myapp_1', 'static'),)
Good luck

in Django 1.5.4
I am receiving a 500 error in terminal and the "A server error
occurred. Please contact the administrator." text on the page.
I've sorted through the relevant Django docs, SO answers, and list
archives, but I don't seem to find an identical circumstance to this.
Anything jump out to anyone? Gratitude.
