Re: Problem with static files inDjango-Oscar
*Check **STATICFILES_DIRS*
Since you are running locally, you need to add:
python
CopyEdit
STATICFILES_DIRS = [BASE_DIR / "static"]
This tells Django where to look for static files in development mode.
*2. Use **runserver** With **--insecure** (For Debugging)*
Try running the development server with:
bash
CopyEdit
python manage.py runserver --insecure
This forces Django to serve static files even if DEBUG = False.
*3. Check If Static Files Are Collected Properly*
Run:
bash
CopyEdit
python manage.py collectstatic --noinput
Then check if all static files are correctly placed inside STATIC_ROOT.
*4. Manually Serve Static Files (Development Mode Only)*
If it's still not working, add this to urls.py (only for local testing!):
python
CopyEdit
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls.static import static
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL,
document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT)
*5. Check If Static Files Exist and Are Reachable*
Run the following command to check what static files Django can find:
bash
CopyEdit
python manage.py findstatic main.css
If Django can't find the file, then it's not stored where it expects.
*6. Confirm File Paths in Templates*
Ensure your paths are correct. Try:
html
CopyEdit
If your main.css file is inside static/css/, then update your path
accordingly.
*7. Try Restarting the Server*
Sometimes, simply stopping and restarting the Django server helps:
bash
CopyEdit
CTRL + C # Stop the server
python manage.py runserver # Start it again
*8. Check Browser Dev Tools*
Open your browser's *Developer Console (F12) **→** Network **→** Static
Files* and check the *request URL* for errors.

Re: Problem with static files inDjango-Oscar
When deploying a Django project with DEBUG = False, static files are not
served automatically by Django. To handle static files in production, you
can use *WhiteNoise*. After installing WhiteNoise, add
'whitenoise.middleware.WhiteNoiseMiddleware' to your MIDDLEWARE settings
and set STATICFILES_STORAGE to
'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'. Then, run python
manage.py collectstatic to collect all static files into the directory
specified by STATIC_ROOT. This setup enables WhiteNoise to serve your
static files efficiently in a production.

Re: Problem with static files inDjango-Oscar
Hi Ewa looks like you need one more setting for development:
STATICFILES_DIRS = [
BASE_DIR / 'static_files', # or whatever directory contains your
static files
]
If that doesn't work, share your urls.py
Maybe it worked for a small project because you have DEBUG = False in that
case.
Let me know if this worked!

Re: Problem with static files inDjango-Oscar
If you Facing static file issue in your Django project.
You should use Base_Dir include OS
*STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'staticfiles')STATICFILES_DIRS = [
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'), *
Because you run the Project Locally.
I hope this will help you

Try installing Pillow if you didn't
