admin has no css

[Tony Guo]

Hi, all, i just have a problem in deploy pinax.

When i run pinax's complete_project from manage.py runserver, i can
visit admin with css styles,

but when i deploy pinax in the server with mod_python mode, i cannot
see the css styles.

Make sure you adjust the
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX =
in settings.py, most probably it is the cause..

i didn't modify the ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX

it is set to media.

Sounds like you didn't map your web server to the media. runserver
maps admin media automagically and Pinax does the same for site_media
when SERVE_MEDIA = True. Take a look at this
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/modpython/#id1
to get some more information.

What I did to get it right under mod python,

1. Make an Apache Virtual Host (subdomain) for media files (include
the project's site-media), document root to your main media dir.
2. Inside media folder I have site_media dir and admin media dir = a
symbolic link from /path/to/django/admin/media/
3. Adjust my settings.py into something like;

ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = 'http://media.domain.com/media/admin/'
MEDIA_ROOT = "/my/media/dir/"
MEDIA_URL = 'http://media.domain.com/site_media/'

I cannot use this method.

Are there some easy way for share-host ?

I had a similar problem. I did a bunch of things including moving to
WSGI from mod_python. I think that is the move that helped out but I
can't be sure.

Sorry I can't be of more assistance.

Tony,
Does your shared hosting supply a means of serving up static
files?
You just need to serve up the media directory somehow on th shared
host and have your settings point to that URL.
