I have a Django system that already works on Heroku and recently I needed to do some updates on this system, it turns out that now, when I try to upload it again to Heroku I'm getting an error in this deploy. Apparently Heroku can't report that it can't find the file "css/theme-style.css"
When facing this problem, I made a clone of the system that is currently working and I tried to upload it again changing only a commented line "#hello" inserted in the views, when deploying the system "no changes" other than "#hello" and the same error is being presented (which leads me to believe that the problem is not in my updates).
These are my file settings:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'accounts',
'core',
'users',
'widget_tweaks',
'whitenoise.runserver_nostatic',
]
MIDDLEWARE = [
'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
'whitenoise.middleware.WhiteNoiseMiddleware',
"core.error_handler.ErrorHandlerMiddleware",
]
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = '/core/static/' #looks weird, but it's located in this folder
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'),
)
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'
When I try to run with 'heroku local' the same error is displayed.
Have you ever had this situation when deploying to Heroku?
