10213	Static Files doc improvement	preds	Kevin Kubasik	"On the following page: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/static-files/

If you follow the directions and use /media/ as the path to serve static files under you'll get the error:
""Permission denied: /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/django/contrib/admin/media/""

Which is because ""/media/"" is also being used for settings.ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX. A few first timers have run into this and gotten stuck so it's probably worth noting in the docs.

My suggestion would be a one liner at the end of the ""How to do it"" section stating ""Be careful not to use the same path as your ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX (which defaults to /media/) as this will overwrite your URLconf entry.""."		closed	Documentation	1.0		fixed	pycamp2009 kkmegapatch	Manuel Kaufmann	Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
