Images and assets not working in my production server on rails 3.1.0

Question

I switched my server to production and i cannot get any of my images to load. It all works fine on development mode but when i switched to production it all stopped working

Answer 1

If you are upgrading to Rails 4 or are currently using it on production, and are loading images from css, then:

instead of

background-image: url('some_image.jpg');

do

background-image: image-url('some_image.jpg');
