rails assets in production not served (yet another assets issue)

问题

I'm using apache 2.2.15 passenger 5.1.2 rails 4.2.6 ruby 2.3.3

In the rails log, I get

(No route matches [GET] application-xxxxx.js

as well as

(No route matches [GET] application-xxxxx.css

I can find the assets in the public/assets directory.

My manifests:

app/assets/stylesheets/application.css.less:

/*
 *= require jquery-ui
 *= require font-awesome
 *= require bootstrap_and_overrides
 *= require awesome-bootstrap-checkbox
 *= require lists
 *= require mailgroups
 *= require general
 *= require colors
 *= require print
 *= require loader
 *= require tooltips
 *= require_self
 *= require_tree .
*/

app/assets/javascripts/application.js

//= require jquery
//= require jquery.turbolinks
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require jquery-ui
//= require twitter/bootstrap
//= require bootstrap
//= require turbolinks
//= require twitter/bootstrap/rails/confirm
//= require_self
//= require_tree .

and I set (following other answers here on SO) in config/production.rb

config.serve_static_files = true

in app/views/layouts/application.html.erb

<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", media: "all", "data-turbolinks-track" => "reload" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbolinks-track" => "reload" %>

I'm lost, thanks for your help.

UPDATE: I don't use Capistrano, just deploying manually.

When running Rails.application.config.assets.paths in the rails console, I get the following:

 => ["/var/www/myappname/app/assets/fonts",

my config/initializers/assets.rb already contains this:

Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += ['.svg', '*.eot', '*.woff', '*.woff2', '*.ttf', '*.otf', '*.js', '*.css']

回答1:

this is my advise.

I add the following resources that may help in finding a solution.

https://launchschool.com/blog/rails-asset-pipeline-best-practices

https://railsapps.github.io/rails-javascript-include-external.html

https://reinteractive.com/posts/116-12-tips-for-the-rails-asset-pipeline

I read all the guides that can be found by searching rails asset pipeline, but I will not link them all

My advice is to check the fingerprint of the application.css and application.js both with the Chrome Developer Tools (by going in any screen element, opening the developer toolbox with f12 and checking any style of any div or any js file). You will need to check which fingerprint version of the file is used, then open that version with the text editor and check what is loaded in the fingerprint version of the file.

If your file (for ex. user.js) is loaded at the bottom of the manifest, you should easily find it at the bottom of your fingerprinted application.js.

If you want to update this file you can run

rake assets:precompile

This will precompile assets only in development, for production you need to specify the environment. It will change that fingerprinted file application.css and application.js with the editing you have done.

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile

You can also check the file at the following address localhost:3000/assets/yourjsfile.js or check the fingerprint version by following localhost:3000/assets/application-yourfingerprint.js

As you can see, many files are included in that public/assets folder, you can delete them with rake assets:clean or -rf public/assets and then run rake assets:precompile, it will precompile again assets.

If nothing is included, then your application.js is not being loaded. You may try the following as I read on different posts:

Include the file in the config/initializers/assets.rb with the following line of code:
```
Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w( user.js )
```
Start the rails c and run Rails.application.config.assets.paths This command will show in red the paths that are automatically included, for example those inside App, Lib and Vendor, in green those that you included by adding inside config/application.rb the follwing code to add new path
```
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("vendor","assets", "fonts")
```

Another error i made in the past was not using the correct sprockets syntax, you can check it at the following link ( i was using require_user instead of require user):

https://github.com/rails/sprockets#sprockets-directives

Another problem was that I had under App/assets/javascript two files named user (user.coffee and user.js). The first to be loaded was user.coffee which was empty.
