Re: Static files not served

Update: removing the noscript tags around the css tags in the template solves the issue. I am no clientside scripting expert, but it is my understanding that noscript tags accommodate browsers with scripting turned off, or legacy browsers? Surely the css should work by default?

I know this is not an html mailing list, but has anybody else encountered this?

Another thing i noticed is that all this is not a problem when i view the templates from outside a Django project - i.e. as a standalone html website.

Hi all,

I have a local development project where I put all static media in a 'static' subdirectory of my app (/project/app/static/). I then created a 'static' directory in the root folder of my project (/project/static/) and specified that as my STATIC_ROOT in settings.py.

When I run the './manage.py collectstatic' command, all static media are added to the static root as expected. In the templates, usage is as follows: '<script src="{% static "js/jquery.min.js" %}"></script>' and so on, but when I view the page in a browser the CSS and js are not applied. If I view page source and click on the generated links to static resources, I do see them.

One thing I do notice is that two of the missing css files are in the document's noscript tag and the links for all three are not clickable when viewing source. There are three in there, so one loads fine.

Any pointers to what I could be missing? Thanks.
