I deployed a django based app on WAMP server using mod_wsgi and to serve
all the static files I run the `py manage.py collectstatic` command. I
checked that the site is serving well but the static files are serving only
when DEBUG=True. But as per the Django's document
<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/howto/static-files/#configuring-static-files>
`DEBUG=True` will serve the static files on the development server for
other servers we should use `DEBUG=False`.
I also checked that all the static files got collected after `collectstatic`
**I am not understanding why it is happening.**
