Answer 1

# Compress JavaScripts and CSS
 config.assets.compress = true

# Don't fallback to assets pipeline if a precompiled asset is missed
config.assets.compile = true

In your production.rb file please check above both are true if not then do it and precompile.

Answer 2

1) rake assets:precompile just compile your resources from app/assets to public/assets . So, try to remove public/assets and run rake assets:precompile . You should see compiled resources in public/assets .

2) In development environment Rails doesn't serve compiled assets. It is compile it in runtime and serve all resources separately. Is it mean that then you looking at application.css in browser you see only content of this resources. Other resources will be in other resources (look at head section of your HTML page)

3) If you want to serve compiled resources from public/assets in development environment (I don't understand why you want it, but ok) you should specify config.serve_static_assets = true in your config/environments/development.rb

FYI: I recommend to read this article about Assets Pipeline.

Answer 3

config.server_static_assets = true in your environment file won't work, especially if you're using heroku.

I had this issue and tried a lot of things. Uninstall & install gems back. Here's what did the trick:
