Re: Problem with staticfiles

I found out that the CSS files where not correctly written and they should have generated this error. Pity I have been searching for the problem for 2 days now :-)

Hi all,

I am trying to CachedStaticFilesStorage to work in our environment. I have been able to configure all of the settings, and am able to copy all static files (we have alot of them) to the correct location. However when the postprocessing starts and the MD5 hashes are being calculated it fails with an exception:

ValueError: The file 'extjs/resources/css/images/default/editor/tb-sprite.gif' could not be found with <django.contrib.staticfiles.storage.CachedStaticFilesStorage object at 0x146ee10>.

This is because it is going through the css files trying to rewrite the url parts to add the MD5 hash. I have looked in the CSS files and all of the url calls are using relative paths, but it seems as though the rewrite process is forgetting to add the "../" part. The path that is in the error is a concatenation of the path where the CSS resides (extjs/resources/css) and the url (../images/default/editor), but it seems that the ../ is being omitted somehow. I have checked and tested the code for traversing the css files in a python shell and it works there. But it fails both on my development machine and the staging server.

Has anyone had the same issues and knows what to do?

Regards,

Andréas
