Thanks in advance for reading. I'm working on my final project for CS50W which involves working with a series of local audio files (user cannot upload additional files at this time). The issue occurs when I try to populate an src attribute with the file. I have two URL paths which deal with accessing these files: new/ and edit/int:id. When I access the audio files in new/, it works as intended and I can play the file from the tag. However, when I try to access the files in the edit/int:id path, I get this error:
GET http://localhost/edit/8/media/Aminor_Ipi3udk.mp3 net::ERR_ABORTED 404 (Not Found)
I am relatively new to coding (just did CS50x and then started CS50w) and I don't understand why I'm getting this error or how I can fix it - I'm doing the same thing for both paths and yet it only works in one of them. I would be grateful if someone could help me to remedy this or at least point me in the direction of understanding why this is happening.

CodePudding user response：
The quick fix here is to change media/{{ chord.file }} to /media/{{ chord.file }}. However, you shouldn't be manually creating this path in the first place. I think you can do {{ chord.file.url }} instead. Here I'm assuming that chord is a model object with a FileField named file. I suggest you check the documentation for FileField to verify this and understand it better.
