Yet Another Can't get static files to show up in shared linux website on Godaddy

Hi all,

Sorry to ask this question but I cant get my static files in Mezzanine to show up on a Godaddy hosted site e.g http://www.murraybridge.co

I have had to use "pip install flup" and "pip install django-fastcgi-server" as Godaddy seems to have the fcgi module active on the apache webserver which I understand is now deprecated.

The .htaccess file is in ~/public_html is ;

AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ mezproject.fcgi/$1 [QSA,L]

My "mezproject.fcgi" file in ~/public_html is;

#!/home/vk2acp/code/mez/bin/python

import sys, os

# Add a custom Python path.

sys.path.insert(0, "/home/vk2acp/code/mezproject")

# Switch to the directory of your project. (Optional.)

os.chdir("/home/vk2acp/code/mezproject")

# Set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable.

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "mezproject.settings"

from django_fastcgi.servers.fastcgi import runfastcgi

from django.core.servers.basehttp import get_internal_wsgi_application

wsgi_application = get_internal_wsgi_application()

runfastcgi(wsgi_application, method="prefork", daemonize="false", minspare=1, maxsp

are=1, maxchildren=1)

The "static" dir exists in the mezproject dir after I did "python manage.py collectstatic"

I have tried copying  static dir to the public_html dir with no effect.

Obviously I cant add the "Alias" directive as I have no control over the http.conf file.

It seems a pity to get this far and run into this brick wall!!!

Do I have to run the whole mez project from the public_html dir???

Any suggestions?

Best Regards

Anthony
