Hi,

I have a simple model and the default admin in django. Everything works as expected and I can upload files. I've read the django docs regarding upload paths. My MEDIA URL and MEDIA ROOT are set and the uploading works. Lets say I login into the default admin, place an order with an uploaded jpg, the I go to edit the order and I see the current upload file.

If I hover the current file link, the complete url is some.url.com/uploads/myfile.jpg, when it should be some.url.com/static/uploads/myfile.jpg ???

My MEDIA URL is set at some.url.com/static/ and MEDIA ROOT at the absolute path to "static".

Since the upload works fine and goes where it should, maybe something is missing...

I'd like to be able to, inside default django admin, go to order edit, hover the current uploaded file, click it and it would open in a new window, Obviously, currently it goes 404...

The relevant part from the model:

ficheiro = models.FileField(upload_to='uploads')

Heres a screenshot: screenshot

Thank You

ok, I'm sorry to bother you all, but it turns out it was something obvious: I've restarted fcgi and the paths are now correct. (duhhh!)

Sorry all for your trouble :)

OT: I just wanted to mention that the question was well-thought out and detailed; while it is obvious the OP is not an expert in Django you went out of your way to try to describe the problem as best as you could. The screenshots with arrows, while not strictly necessary, sure made me want to try to help you. :-) Welcome to SO!
