Nginx not serving static files /Django-CodePudding

When I deploy my project to server using Nginx and Gunicorn static files are not loading.

This is how my website looks after deploying

nginx.service is as follows


user  nginx;
worker_processes  auto;

error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log notice;
pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;


events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}


http {
    include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
                      '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
                      '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

    access_log  /var/log/nginx/access.log  main;

    sendfile        on;
    #tcp_nopush     on;

    keepalive_timeout  65;

    #gzip  on;

    include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;

    server {
    listen 8081;
    server_name 0.0.0.0;
    location = /favicon.ico { access_log off; log_not_found off; }
    location /static/ {
       root home/zp_dashboard_testing_python/zp_main/staticfiles;
    }
    location / {
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_pass http://unix:/run/gunicorn.sock; }
}

}

settings.py

BOOTSTRAP4 = {
    'include_jquery': True,
}


STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATICFILES_DIRS = [
    os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static")
]

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticfiles')

I have run collectstatic command and it gives some warnings file already found at destination path, but its just a warning and not an error.

nginx error logs are as follows

Console error:

P.S: Changing root to alias in nginx.service file didn't help either. I guess this doesn't concern with gunicorn.

CodePudding user response：

nginx is trying to find static files in /etc/nginx/home/zp_dashboard_testing_python/zp_main/staticfiles/. But it looks like your static files are in /home/zp_dashboard_testing_python/zp_main/staticfiles. Like @Niloct suggested, change location /static/ to

location /static/ {
       root /home/zp_dashboard_testing_python/zp_main/staticfiles;
    }
