在Django settings.py文件中指定STATIC_ROOT STATIC_URL时出错

Question

I am new to django and web application development. I am trying to add css to my demo site (using django v1.4 on windows7) and getting the following error. I have tried all, and wasted almost 3-4 hrs. still not been able to resolve it.

I think I am doing some silly mistake, can anyone please let me know where I am making the blunder.

either when I do

http://localhost:8000/static/css.css

or

python manage.py collectstatic

I get:

TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, tuple found

setting.py file is:

Answer 1

STATIC_ROOT   = os.path.join(PROJECT_PATH,'static').replace('\\', '/'),

取出,在该行的末尾。
