I’m deploying a django app on a host with apache and cPanel. I think I did all the steps that django needs to deploy. Everything works fine except dome admin posts urls.
When I’m sending a form via post from the admin site, and one of its fields is a File that will be uploaded to a directory, the server responses me 404. Some info:
Python 3.5, Django 1.11.9
Error: 404 Not Found
When: sending any post form containing a Choose File field, even if the file isn’t mandatory.
The forms without files in their fields work fine. In production everything works perfect.
I have a symlink in the public_html folder to my media and static folders.
This error only shows in the admin page. I can upload file from the site without any problem
This is my code:
urls.py
urlpatterns = i18n_patterns(
url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
url(r'^i18n/', include('django.conf.urls.i18n')),
url(r'^', include('myapp.urls')),
prefix_default_language=False)
settings.py
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
This is my first time hosting a website, so, sorry if I’m asking a dummy question, but I couldn’t find any solution, even here. Also, sorry for my English. Thanks for the future answers
EDIT
My non-admin forms work perfect. The problem is in the admin page. I edited my old question with the changes in bold

It can be web server problem. Check your cPanel settings
May be something wrong with your wsgi file location
Check up some tutorial for more info.
In case you are serving media files using django’s static file server, the
urlpatterns
variable in your project’s baseurls.py
file should be assigned in a specific order so that thei18n_patterns(...)
assignment places before thestatic(...)
url.you should do it like so:
