XsendFile with apache and django

Also make sure to set the XSendFilePath in your Apache configuration file like so,

XSendFile on
XSendFilePath "//path/to/files/on/disk"
<Directory "//path/to/files/on/disk">
    Order Deny,Allow
    Allow from all
</Directory>

and include this in your view while returning the response:

response['X-Sendfile'] = smart_str(file_path)

And to answer your questions:

Activate the XSendFile in the vhost tag
I've written above what else needs to be done in the view
I'm not sure if you should remove the media alias, the log files should tell you if having them is a problem
