Filebrowser uses absolute instead of relative path

[Robrecht Colson]

Hey guys! I'm kind of new to Django. I'm looking into filebrowser for some front-end file management. I've got it installed and somewhat properly configured - when I'm in my admin panel, I can see the files in my /media/images folder. However, when I try accessing these files, the URL is localhost:8000/home/robbie/desktop/folder/project/media/images/file.jpg. I'm sure there is an easy fix for this, but I've played with my settings.py a bit and I couldn't find it. Here's the relevant part of my settings: 

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))

PROJECT_PATH = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))

PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'media/')

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

FILEBROWSER_MEDIA_ROOT = MEDIA_ROOT

FILEBROWSER_DIRECTORY = MEDIA_URL

Does anyone know how to fix this? Many thanks in advance!

The above settings are actually incorrect. This 

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))

PROJECT_PATH = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))

PROJECT_ROOT = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media/')

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

FILEBROWSER_MEDIA_ROOT = MEDIA_ROOT

FILEBROWSER_DIRECTORY = MEDIA_ROOT

is what I'm actually using

Try removing all of the FILEBROWSER_ settings and using these configs for your static/media

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, STATIC_URL.strip("/"))

MEDIA_URL = STATIC_URL + "media/"

MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, *MEDIA_URL.strip("/").split("/"))
