Thanks for the info. I will check it out.  I am still in development so it will be awhile before I need it.

Hi,

That is the way it should be if you look in the documentation:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/howto/static-files/

Serving the files

In addition to these configuration steps, you’ll also need to actually serve the static files.

During development, if you use|django.contrib.staticfiles| <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/contrib/staticfiles/#module-django.contrib.staticfiles>, this will be done automatically by|runserver| <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/django-admin/#django-admin-runserver>when|DEBUG| <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/settings/#std:setting-DEBUG>is set to|True|(see|django.contrib.staticfiles.views.serve()| <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/contrib/staticfiles/#django.contrib.staticfiles.views.serve>).

This method is*grossly inefficient*and probably*insecure*, so it is*unsuitable for production*.

SeeDeploying static files <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/howto/static-files/deployment/>for proper strategies to serve static files in production environments.


So it is exactly like gunicorn - because you need to serve your static files from a webbserver instead of from django itself.

That's why it is failing.

What you could do (although I don't recommend it) - it to manually add the static files serving to your urls.py file. See:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/howto/static-files/#serving-static-files-during-development

This should be fine for a developer environment - but nothing else.

Regards,

Andréas

    On my admin site if I have Debug set to true (I have read that for
    production this is a no-no) everything looks fine. When I change
    it to FALSE all of the styling goes away as if it is being run
    using gunicorn.

    Has anyone observed this?  If so have you found a correction?

    Thanks.
