Django app deployment not loading static files

问题

I have a django app which has angular and bootstrap. This is how my settings are defined:

# Django settings for studentsite project.
import os

PROJECT_DIR = os.path.dirname(__file__)
DEBUG = True
TEMPLATE_DEBUG = DEBUG

ADMINS = (
    # ('Your Name', 'your_email@example.com'),

        'NAME': 'texascompletesdb',                      # Or path to database file if using sqlite3.
        # The following settings are not used with sqlite3:

        'PASSWORD': 'password',
        'HOST': 'localhost',                      # Empty for localhost through domain sockets or '127.0.0.1' for localhost through TCP.

The app works great on localhost. The next phase was to deploy it on the server and i am getting it to work. But the static files are not being loaded. The browser gives a 404(Not Found) error when i am trying to load the static files in the head of my template.

I went through this but am still confused. Where do i need to make the changes in order to make the app access my static files?

回答1:

Django's runserver serves static files through python automatically, which is not good enough for production use. When you deploy and are thus not using runserver, your static files are not auto-served.

In production, you must run the python manage.py collectstatic command which moves all static files to your settings.STATIC_ROOT.

You then need to serve settings.STATIC_ROOT at settings.STATIC_URL via your web server of choice, very commonly nginx as a reverse proxy behind your Apache-mod_wsgi app server.

You can also use your Apache, where you'd want to look into the <Directory> directive.

The documentation you linked to explains exactly what you need to do, and hopefully my bullet points make it a little easier to understand.
