Answer 1

Django recommends that you deploy static files with a web server other than wsgi.

1. In settings.py, set:

STATIC_ROOT = 'static'

2. Run python manage.py collectstatic, which will copy the Django admin static files to /path/to/project/static/

3. Configure your static file server. If you use Nginx, you could add this config:

   location /static/ {                              
       alias /path/to/project/static/;  
       expires modified +1w;                        
   }  
   

4. Reload your web server

You should now have access to the static files.

Also make sure that AppDirectoriesFinder is not commented, happens when you're trying to customize your own app structure. Unfortunatelly it's pointless to seek such information in official docs.

STATICFILES_FINDERS = [
    'django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.AppDirectoriesFinder',
]

Answer 3

in my project, the solution is in settings.py, set:

DEBUG = False # debug false mod not working css

Answer 4

In settings.py Don't use tuple for the

STATICFILES_DIRS =( os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'), )

you should use list,like this

STATICFILES_DIRS =[ os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'), ]

One solution might be to add your local IP to the ALLOWED_HOSTS list in settings.py

e.g.

CURRENT_IP = '192.168.0.123'
ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['127.0.0.1', 'localhost', '0.0.0.0', CURRENT_IP]
