Thanks Antonis,
I reached your website googling undoubtedly this is well explained. I have
been able to deploy but here is my problem
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR,
"static"),os.path.join(BASE_DIR,"static","admin")]
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR),'static_root')
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(BASE_DIR),'media_root')
This is my settings in settingss.py
Here is my vhost.conf files
WSGIPythonHome /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
WSGIPythonPath /var/www/firsttest
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName firsttest.com
ServerAlias www.firsttest.com
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/firsttest/firsttest/wsgi.py
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/firsttest/first_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/firsttest/first_access.log combined
Alias */static/admin /var/www/firsttest/static/admin*
<Directory */var/www/firsttest/static/admin*>
Require all granted
</Directory>
Alias /static */var/www/firsttest/static*
<Directory */var/www/firsttest/static*>
Require all granted
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/firsttest/firsttest>
<Files wsgi.py>
Require all granted
</Files>
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Now with this conf file everything works fine. CSS, js all works fine.
However, you notice the conf file marked in red. its not actually pointing
to my static_root folder which in settings defined as
/var/www/static_root
static root is one which gathers all my static files when I run collect
static
if I understand correctly from documentation. Web server should point to
static root folder to access css files in production.

Sarfaraz Ahmed
