I just put my Django application online using uwsgi. I can access it from any computer it working well.. the only thing is uwsgi can't load the css file stored in the /static/myapp/style.css path and I don't why.
The message I get when accessing a page on my site in the uwsgi console is :
GET /static/myapp/style.css => generated 98 bytes in 1msecs (HTTP/1.1 404) 3 header in 100bytes
But the file is actually in /static/myapp/style.css I can see it and it was working well in developpement, but now the website is in production it's not working anymore.
I added these to my settings.py but nothing changed :
STATIC_URL = '/static/' #Was enough in developpement
STATICFILES_FINDERS = (
"django.contrib.staticfiles.finders.FileSystemFinder",
)
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'),
)
STATIC_ROOT = ("/home/user/Django/mysite/static"),
I also tried to add option in my uwsgi command like
--check-static /home/user/Django/mysite/static
Still not working...
I'm quite new to putting online a Django app so maybe it's not supposed to work like that.
My css file is on the same machine as my Django project.
I'm using django 1.11 and uwsgi 2.5.15.
I also tried to used nginx but I couldn't get it work properly and as I just want to access my app online I concluded that uwsgi alone is enough ( Am I wrong ? )
So if you have any idea that would be great !
Best regards

I've tried different solutions already posted by users, but they didn't work for me.
settings.py of Project
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
DEBUG = False
ALLOWED_HOSTS = ["*"]
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS=[
os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'static')
]
STATIC_ROOT=os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'assets')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR,'media')
All my CSS files are in style folder inside the static folder.
And all images are in the media folder.

Also, I want to disable DEBUG because I want to make my custom 404 Error page.
404 page will also contain static Image and CSS, is it possible? Please help me with that too.
This is expected behavior. Django does not serve static files or media files in production. You should configure nginx, etc. to serve files.
As is specified in the Static file development view section of the documentation:
This view will only work if DEBUG is True.
That’s because this view is grossly inefficient and probably
insecure. This is only intended for local development, and should
never be used in production.
Normally you should configure nginx, apache web server to serve static files. These web servers are likely more efficient, and have more dedicated tooling for security.
Django offers some tooling to help you set up static files, for example with the collectstatic command [Django-doc] to collect static files in a single location. The documentation furthermore describes how to make a basic configuration for apache and nginx.
There is also a package whitenoise if you really want to let Django serve static files in production, but as said in the documentation:
Isn’t serving static files from Python horribly inefficient?
The short answer to this is that if you care about performance and
efficiency then you should be using WhiteNoise behind a CDN like
CloudFront. If you’re doing that then, because of the caching headers
WhiteNoise sends, the vast majority of static requests will be served
directly by the CDN without touching your application, so it really
doesn’t make much difference how efficient WhiteNoise is.
That said, WhiteNoise is pretty efficient. Because it only has to
serve a fixed set of files it does all the work of finding files and
determining the correct headers upfront on initialization. Requests
can then be served with little more than a dictionary lookup to find
the appropriate response. Also, when used with gunicorn (and most
other WSGI servers) the actual business of pushing the file down the
network interface is handled by the kernel’s very efficient sendfile
syscall, not by Python.
I had the same issue and you should update your nginx or any another serve configuration. Just add your media and static path like below.
location /media/ {
root /path/to/your/project;
}
location /static/ {
root /path/to/your/project;
}
Project path means where your media and static directories are located. Wish this helps you.
I'm a beginner in Django and I'm studying Django from the book "Django 2 by Example", written by Antonio Mele. I'm trying to add social authentication to my site(book page no. 251) {project name-bookmark, app name-account}. Up to this point, I'm installed the Django package
"social-auth-app-django",
synced python-social-auth models with database using migration and added "social_django" to the INSTALLED_APPS settings of my project. Then I've added
path('social-auth/', include('social_django.urls', namespace='social')),
now it is telling me to edit my hosts file located at "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts" and to add "127.0.0.1 mysite.com" line which I've added. After this running server "http://example.com:8000/account/login/" should give error, here example.com is actually mysite.com,
DisallowedHost at /account/login:
Invalid HTTP_HOST header:'mysite.com:8000'.You may need to add 'mysite.com' to ALLOWED_HOSTS.
But I don't know why it isn't showing instead of that it gives me "This site can’t be reached. mysite.com refused to connect."
But it works perfectly fine at 127.0.0.1:8000.
Please help me I'm stuck. I've searched on google as well as watched videos on youtube but still, this error can't be solved(generated) by me.
Edit the hosts file in your etc folder.
Don't add the # on the line that contains your new line adding mysite.com
When I'm using publicPath: '/static/' in my webpack config, my Vue.js app runs fine on a Django Webserver (both dev and production).
However now I'm trying to use history mode. I have to change the publicPath to "/", otherwise the URL always gets a "/static/" in between the domain and actual target.
The Vue.js dev server still runs fine, however both production and development Django server give me these errors in the browser console:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < Resource interpreted as
Stylesheet but transferred with MIME type text/html:
"http://127.0.0.1:8000/6.01a214ce.css".
I've tried several different solutions like:
publicPath: './'
assetsPublicPath: '/static/'
inside base html (gave me an error on compilation)
How can I resolve this issue?
it was actually a framework issue.. im using Quasar..
For some reason you have to change
base: process.env.VUE_ROUTER_BASE,
to
base: "/",
in router/index.js as the default seems to take the static url when you are using Django..
maybe it helps somebody
I have a website that works fine on my 'production server' with the url being something akin to:
https://mymain.site.com
I have had my sys admins build a site out for development and that url is:
https://mymain.site.com/development
It is a different IP address, but I believe the URL is wrecking havoc on django routing. Mostly I notice it in the static section of it.
If I goto the development server settings and change the static url to:
/development/static/
instead of /static/ like it was on production
None of my static files are found. Since the development server is a VM copy the root on the server for static files is the same. So if I run with the /development/static as the dev url it fails to load resources. If I run on my development server with the url being /static/ I am 90% sure it is grabbing the static files from the production server (at a different ip/url). Not totally sure what the fix is here? I am loking for any kind of ideas.
I suspect if the url of my development server was something more akin to:
https://mymain.site.for.development/
then this would work right out of the box from the code copied from the VM just repointing a few things.
So what am I missing to get this to work with the right static files?
I use a CDN for my static file hosting and this is how I have my settings.py file setup:
STATIC_HOST = 'https://cdn.host.com' if not DEBUG else ''
STATIC_URL = STATIC_HOST + '/static/'
When I'm developing I'll set DEBUG = True and everything works as expected. I would imagine you would have to do something like this:
STATIC_HOST = 'https://mymain.site.com' if not DEBUG else 'https://mymain.site.com/development'
STATIC_URL = STATIC_HOST + '/static/'
See if something like that would work.
My question is about how to serve multiple urls.py (like urls1.py, urls2.py and so on) files in a single Django project.
I am using Win7 x64, django 1.4.1, python 2.7.3 and as a server django dev-server tool.
I have decided to use a method which i found by google from
http://effbot.org/zone/django-multihost.htm
I have created a multihost.py file and put in to the django middleware folder:
C:\python27\Lib\site-packages\django\middleware\multihost.py
With the following code:
from django.conf import settings
from django.utils.cache import patch_vary_headers
class MultiHostMiddleware:
def process_request(self, request):
try:
host = request.META["HTTP_HOST"]
if host[-3:] == ":80":
host = host[:-3] # ignore default port number, if present
request.urlconf = settings.HOST_MIDDLEWARE_URLCONF_MAP[host]
except KeyError:
pass # use default urlconf (settings.ROOT_URLCONF)
def process_response(self, request, response):
if getattr(request, "urlconf", None):
patch_vary_headers(response, ('Host',))
return response
Also in my project setting.py file i have added a mapping dictionary like the link above shows:
# File: settings.py
HOST_MIDDLEWARE_URLCONF_MAP = {
"mysite1.com": "urls1",
#"mysite2.com": "urls2"
}
I did not yet implemented the error handling like described by the link above.
My hosts file includes the follwoing:
127.0.0.1 mysite1.com
Project structure is the following:
effbot django project folder:
+ effbot
--- settings.py
--- view.py
--- wsgi.py
--- urls.py
--- urls1.py
+ objex
--- models.py
--- views.py
+ static
--- css
--- images
There is no templates folder, because i dont serve html items from files, they are coming from databsse (i doubt that my problem is in this).
Now the problem is: when i go for the adress
mysite1.com
in my browser with django dev-server launched i get code 301 from the server. And browser shows "cannot display page" message.
Could you please explain me how to use mentioned method? I'm new to django and haven't done any real projects yet. Just have read the docs and launched a couple of sites at home to learn how it works.
I expect that urlconfs will be called in dependance from incoming
request.META["HTTP_HOST"]
The target is to serve different urlconfs for mysite1.com and mysite2.com
in a single django project.
I think this should to work some how.
Thank you for any feedback.
EDIT:
After some research attempts i found that i plugged my multyhost.py incorrectly in settings.
Fixed now. But the same result still.
Also i found out that my django dev-server tool is not reflecting anyhow that it handles any requests from the browser (IE9) except when i do "http://127.0.0.1".
May be i have to try some production server for my task, like nginx?
Your ROOT_URLCONF should be effbot.urls without .pyas you can see in the example in the documentation.
Also, HOST_MIDDLEWARE_URLCONF_MAP should reflect the ROOT_URLCONF so add `effbot. like this:
HOST_MIDDLEWARE_URLCONF_MAP = {
"mysite1.com": "effbot.urls1",
#"mysite2.com": "effbot.urls2"
}
One more thing, please try with another browser (Chrome, Firefox), sometimes I had problems accessing dev server with IE.
