got it. can you post the routes.py you're using ?
The problem lies in the fact that routes.py is really flexible and adapting
that logic using only rewrite or alias statements in nginx is cumbersome.
Standing on one feet (i.e. without tests) I'd say that the regex checking
static files
location ~* /(\w+)/static/ {
root /home/www-data/web2py/applications/;
#remove next comment on production
#expires max;
}
is catching it as the app name and not the language "trick" . so, for a request
going to /it/app/static/whatever.css is looking into
/home/www-data/web2py/applications/*it/*appname/static/whatever.css instead of
..... (remove the bold part, "*it/*").
If you remove those lines web2py will take charge for static files serving,
so the issue will be temporarily fixed.
I'll try to set up some additional rules to make nginx behave like
routes.py, but it will take some time.
PS: please mind that the script it's a template.... it's not meant to
fullfill every custom installation patterns out there without further
tuning.
language routing is probably the most difficult out there because for a
request
/it/appname/static/whateverfile.css
web2py looks into /web2py/appname/static/it/whateverfile.css and then if
not found into /web2py/appname/static/whateverfile.css (a nice fallback,
but hard to map with a simple nginx statement)
