Nginx is not serving Django static files

Question

I just configured my first django server for a very basic django-website. I'm using Django 1.4 and Nginx 1.0.14 with supervisor and gunicorn.

The problem is that Nginx is not serving the static files as suposed, but I don't know the why because is my first time using it.

This is the path where really lives my static files:

/home/cristian/envs/santalupe.com/santalupe/santalupe/static

And this is the setting I've in my nginx config file:

# Django admin media.
location /media/ {
autoindex on;
    alias /home/cristian/envs/santalupe.com/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/static/;
}

# Site media
location /static/ {
autoindex on;
    alias /home/cristian/envs/santalupe.com/santalupe/santalupe/static/;
}

Please let me know what I need to do in this case because I have not idea about the real problem.

Answer 1

也许manage.py collectstatic在服务器上帮助你？

Answer 2

You aren't serving the admin media from Nginx, just normal media. Try something like:

location /admin/media/ {
    # this changes depending on your python version
    root /home/cristian/envs/santalupe.com/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib;
}

Note how there's no trailing slash and the path ends at contrib. I'm using almost exactly this code successfully in production.
