Simplifying the local_settings.py seems to have resolved this problem; I'm using the defaults for STATIC_ROOT and STATIC_URL that are already in settings.py, with the configuration for nginx as listed above.
Of course, now I'm getting a different error, but the problem with the permission errors on static files seems to have been taken care of. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Mezzanine Users" group.
