29069	Static file serving does not call request_finished signal	André Cruz	nobody	"I'm using the method described here for serving uploaded files in development:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/howto/static-files/#serving-files-uploaded-by-a-user-during-development

However I've found that requests that hit these URLs emit the request_started signal but not the request_finished signal. Supposedly this signal would be sent after the content was sent but it is never sent. I've tried both with runserver and the latest uWSGI.

This is a problem when we are using a connection pool since Django uses this signal to cleanup db connections (and thus return them to the pool), so we have a connection leak."
