Django Oscar Image saved in cache folder but not showing

Question

Could anyone point me the direction to solve the image not displaying properly, since the image was saved in cache folder with 500 error. I am not sure if it is to due to permission or something deeper?

This is what I had configure but not sure if I doing it right.

URLS.py:

from django.apps import apps
from django.urls import include, path
from django.contrib import admin
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
from oscar.views import handler403, handler404, handler500

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', include(apps.get_app_config('oscar').urls[0])),
]

if settings.DEBUG:
    import debug_toolbar

    # Server statics and uploaded media
    urlpatterns += static(settings.MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings.MEDIA_ROOT)
    # Allow error pages to be tested
    urlpatterns += [
        path('403', handler403, {'exception': Exception()}),
        path('404', handler404, {'exception': Exception()}),
        path('500', handler500),
        path('__debug__/', include(debug_toolbar.urls)),
    ]

Setting.py:

# Static files (CSS, JavaScript, Images)
# https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/howto/static-files/

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static/')

MEDIA_ROOT = '/media/'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

THUMBNAIL_DEBUG = DEBUG
THUMBNAIL_KEY_PREFIX = 'oscar-sandbox'
THUMBNAIL_KVSTORE = env(
    'THUMBNAIL_KVSTORE',
    default='sorl.thumbnail.kvstores.cached_db_kvstore.KVStore')
THUMBNAIL_REDIS_URL = env('THUMBNAIL_REDIS_URL', default=None)


STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'
 
STATICFILES_FINDERS = (
    'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder',
)

I had the same problem. I was helped by adding in urls.py applications url string

templates += static (settings. MEDIA_URL, document_root=settings. MEDIA_ROOT)

In settings.py were also added:

# Path helper
location = lambda x: os.path.join(
    os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)), x)

# Absolute path to the directory that holds media.
# Example: "/home/media/media.lawrence.com/"
MEDIA_ROOT = location("public/media")

# URL that handles the media served from MEDIA_ROOT. Make sure to use a
# trailing slash if there is a path component (optional in other cases).
# Examples: "http://media.lawrence.com", "http://example.com/media/"
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = location('public/static')
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
    location('static/'),
)
