  • `when deployed` you mean _on prod_? with debug=false? – Ivan Starostin May 22 '22 at 18:48
  • yes on prod and debug=True – shtsus May 22 '22 at 19:35
  • Verify that on prod it's the same folder and the user running webserver has access to this folder. Consider using BASE_DIR instead of absolute paths. Also you might prefer to store projects files not inside user private home folder and store them somewhere /var/opt or whatever. If you had media files locally before deployment then they must be copied to prod manually. – Ivan Starostin May 22 '22 at 20:57
