Django - Static file not found

Question

I\'m trying to serve static files within my Django 1.3 development environment.

Here a

Answer 1

In your cmd type command python manage.py findstatic --verbosity 2 static It will give the directory in which Django is looking for static files.If you have created a virtual environment then there will be a static folder inside this virtual_environment_name folder. VIRTUAL_ENVIRONMENT_NAME\Lib\site-packages\django\contrib\admin\static. On running the above 'findstatic' command if Django shows you this path then just paste all your static files in this static directory. In your html file use JINJA syntax for href and check for other inline css. If still there is an image src or url after giving JINJA syntax then prepend it with '/static'. This worked for me.
