django thumbnail img url does not correctly rendered in html

Question

This is HTML code piece that in my template:

{%load thumbnail%}
<img style="border: 1px solid #53BCB8; padding: 2px;" src="{%thumbnail 'photodir/photo.jpg' 256x256%}" />

And in my settings.py

MEDIA_URL="http://url.com/static/"

And this is the rendered state of HTML:

<img style="border: 1px solid #53BCB8; padding: 2px;" src="http://url.com/staticphotodir/photo_jpg_256x256_q85.jpg" />

the problem is: in the rendered html, img url does not valid. Trailing slash is missing between "static" and "photodir". How is that happenning and what is the solution? Can anybody explain?

Note: thumbnail template tag belongs to sorl-thumbnail

I'm sorry I was forget mention about `sorl`. the `thumbnail` template tag belongs to standart `sorl-thumbnail`, not mine. — Sencer H., Jan 23 '12 at 14:35
In your HTMl, does adding a slash in front of photodir help at all? Example: `src="{%thumbnail '/photodir/photo... %}` — Bryce Siedschlaw, Jan 24 '12 at 22:20
@BryceSiedschlaw Nope! It's not helped. When I added slash before photodir, thumbnail tag completely fails. No URI printed in to src. — Sencer H., Jan 25 '12 at 08:29

Have a look, I created a test project for you. It works like a charm with:

Django==1.3.1
Pillow==1.7.6
sorl-thumbnail==11.12

I get /media/cache/77/c6/77c60cc55e126abe02cbe5de48693c80.png as the result. So it seems that your MEDIA_ROOT variable contains a wrong value. Please ensure it has a trailing slash.

I thought the same, although I have some doubts – Goin Jan 24 '12 at 00:00
