Re: Trouble with STATIC_URL in v1.5.2

Check that your STATIC_URL setting in your template is outputting the same string as settings.STATIC_URL. Make sure that any included local_settings.py files are not wiping out those settings. You can check it using the Django shell:

$ python manage.py shell

>>> from django.conf import settings

>>> settings.STATIC_URL

'/assets/static/'

If not, check that you're using RequestContext to render your views. You can do this from the Django shell as well.

>>> from django.http import HttpRequest

>>> r = HttpRequest()

>>> from django.template import Template

>>> t = Template("{{ STATIC_URL }}")

>>> from django.template import RequestContext

>>> c = RequestContext(r, {})

>>> t.render(c)

u'/assets/static/'

Check that you're including 'django.core.context_processors.static'  in your settings.TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS tuple.

>>> settings.TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS

('django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth', 'django.core.context_processors.debug', 'django.core.context_processors.i18n', 'django.core.context_processors.media', 'django.core.context_processors.static', 'django.core.context_processors.tz', 'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages')

Maybe this is something well known.

I'm using STATIC_URL in my templates.  Worked perfectly in Django 1.4.x.
Upgraded to v1.5.2.  Now STATIC_URL ONLY works when the DEBUG setting is
True.  When set to False (For production), STATIC_URL is an empty string
in the template.

Anybody have any idea why this might be happening or what to look at?
Everything that needs to be set for STATIC_URL is set, otherwise it
wouldn't have worked in v1.4.x in the first place.
