Amazon Elastic Beanstalk not serving django static files

Question

I am trying to put up a simple django app on elastic beanstalk. I thought I had the static parts of the app figured out as it works with heroku and on a server that was set up

Answer 1

I came across the same problem today, and I realized that I forgot this option in the .ebextensions/.config file. Make sure you have it too

option_settings:
  - namespace: aws:elasticbeanstalk:container:python:staticfiles
    option_name: /static/
    value: static/
