An alias directive to tell apache where to find your media is probably
all you need. Assuming your apache's DocumentRoot is something other
than your templates dir.
<Location "/media">
SetHandler None
</Location>
Alias /media/ /opt/python/django-apps/foo/templates/media/
Also putting your media dir in your templates dir is kind of odd.
Usually it's at the top of the project directory.
Then set MEDIA_URL='/media/' you don't need 'http://localhost'.

Finally in your templates use '/media/foo' not 'media/foo', that way
it doesn't matter what location you are serving from, /media/ will
work.

Also don't forget to set DEBUG=True in your settings.py and check your
error log for more info.
