django-staticfiles

I have a Django app on Heroku. I am having some problems with static files (they are loading in one Heroku environment but not another), so I tried the debug command recommended here . $ heroku run python manage.py collectstatic --noinput Running `python manage.py collectstatic --noinput` attached to terminal... up, run.8771 OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/app/{myappname}/static' Here is my settings.py, which is the same thing Heroku recommends: import os import os.path BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) STATIC_ROOT = 'staticfiles' STATIC_URL = '/static/'

Django version is 1.4. I had read the official document , and googled my problem. first I had followed the official document Managing static files added this in settings.py : TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS = ( 'django.core.context_processors.debug', 'django.core.context_processors.i18n', 'django.core.context_processors.media', 'django.core.context_processors.static', 'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth', 'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages', ) In my template: <link href="{{ STATIC_URL }}css/main.css" ...> but, in my broswer is: <link href="css/main.css" ...> (Just render

This is annoying. I have a javascript file referenced on a django template: <script src="{% static 'js/login.js' %} "></script> I made some changes to that js file. Then, I refresh the page and I can't see the changes happen. If I remove the javascript from the file and put it in the HTML, it works correctly, but if I try to do it using the external js file then it doesn't. I have tried closing the server and running runserver several times, I've also tried changing from Firefox to Chrome. It makes no sense at all. Please help me understand, I can get away with including all the js inside the

So I'm building a Django progressive web app with offline support using service workers. According to google's documentation , the sw.js file should be at the root of the app's url: You need to do this because the scope of a service worker (the set of urls that the ServiceWorker will load for) is defined by the directory where it resides. At the moment, I'm serving all static assets from http://example.com/static/ folder. But I need to serve this specific file at a url like: http://example.com/sw.js . Any idea how I can achieve this? I could make a specific nginx rule to do this redirection,

I am using Django with runserver for my development. When I deploy to my production server I can see all my static files, but not on my local computer. I did collectstatic and I have set DEBUG = True . I found many different opinions online, the most prominent being the STATICFILES_DIRS , but that does not work for me. How can I set it so that in my development environment I can see the static files, and when I upload my files to the server I do not need to make any changes for the production environment to work properly. Edit - my urls.py file: from django.conf.urls import patterns, include,

Is it supposed to be listed in Settings.py automatically or do I have to add it? I am having a ridiculously hard time serving up an image file in development and the docs are too terse for my taste and don't spell things out clearly to me for some reason. I'd like to check to see what my template_context_processors are, but where is it located? It's not in my settings.py file. Do I need to edit this typically?
