Page not found (404)

I'm been working on this Photo Organizer and Sharing App Part I at http://lightbird.net/dbe/photo.html. I'm trying to add a photo and when I do . I get this error.

 Page not found (404)
Request Method: GET 
Request URL: http://donkey123.pythonanywhere.com/admin/photo/image/1/images/Penguins_7.jpg/

image object with primary key u'1/images/Penguins_7.jpg' does not exist.

You're seeing this error because you have DEBUG = True in your Django settings file. Change that to False, and Django will display a standard 404 page.

My Models is

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib import admin
from string import join
import os
from PIL import Image as PImage
from mysite.settings import MEDIA_ROOT


class Album(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=60)
    public = models.BooleanField(default=False)
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.title

class Tag(models.Model):
    tag = models.CharField(max_length=50)
    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.tag

class Image(models.Model):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=60, blank=True, null=True)
    image = models.FileField(upload_to="images/")
    tags = models.ManyToManyField(Tag, blank=True)
    albums = models.ManyToManyField(Album, blank=True)
    created = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
    rating = models.IntegerField(default=50)
    width = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)
    height = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True)
    user = models.ForeignKey(User, null=True, blank=True)

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.image.name
    def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
        """Save image dimensions."""
        super(Image, self).save(*args, **kwargs)
    im = PImage.open(os.path.join(MEDIA_ROOT, self.image.name))
    self.width, self.height = im.size
    super(Image, self).save(*args, ** kwargs)
def size(self):
    """Image size."""
    return "%s x %s" % (self.width, self.height)

def __unicode__(self):
    return self.image.name

def tags_(self):
    lst = [x[1] for x in self.tags.values_list()]
    return str(join(lst, ', '))

def albums_(self):
    lst = [x[1] for x in self.albums.values_list()]
    return str(join(lst, ', '))

def thumbnail(self):
    return """<a href="/media/%s"><img border="0" alt="" src="/media/%s" height="40" /></a>""" % (
                                                                (self.image.name, self.image.name))
thumbnail.allow_tags = True





class AlbumAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    search_fields = ["title"]
    list_display = ["title"]

class TagAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    list_display = ["tag"]

class ImageAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    search_fields = ["title"]
    list_display =     ["__unicode__", "title", "user", "rating", "size", "tags_", "albums_","thumbnail","created"]
    list_filter = ["tags", "albums","user"]

def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):
    obj.user = request.user
    obj.save()

I think My Models,py is fine but I think the problem lay at the MEDIA_ROOT= and MEDIA URL=

My MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/donkey123/mysite/photo'

and my MEDIA_URL= is "" which is blank.

I don't know what to put for my MEDIA_URL at pythonanywhere forums which is the problem.

Hi there,

You'll need to set up a static files mapping to get media to work, to match what you have in settings.py.

So, if MEDIA_ROOT = '/home/donkey123/mysite/photo', I would set MEDIA_URL = '/media/' and then, on the Web tab, find the static files section, and enter a new entry with /media/ as the url and /home/donkey123/mysite/photo as the path.
