Question

I am trying to play a video on an iOS device. When I tried to play i got the following error:

The video file of all formats is working perfectly in all browsers and Android devices. When I try to access it from an iOS device. It gives me the above error. As you can see in error, first it is giving me response as 200 and then there is broken pipe. What does this broken pipe even mean? Just FYI, I have already posted a question stating that I can't play video on iOS devices, I am now posting a new question because I found this error in my terminal.

How do i fix this issue? Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

This is beacause django is handling your media files not apache.Try by changing you configuration in server.

For example inside your apache2 edit example.com.conf file add following lines so that apache will serve media files.

**Alias /media /your project path/media**

Sometimes this may fix this issue.
