22904	Django returns an HTTP 200 on a HEAD request for a non-existing file in the media folder	sHtev	nobody	"I have some Javascript code in a django app that performs a HEAD request on a file to test if it exists. This file is in the media folder of the standard static files setup in development.

However, django returns an HTTP 200 code regardless of whether the file exists or not. Expected behaviour is that it should return a 404 when the file does not exist.

GET requests return a 404 as expected."	Bug	closed	File uploads/storage	1.7	Normal	needsinfo	staticfiles HEAD request HTTP		Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
