404 on static files

[Xila Cai]

Hi, I have a django project and previously I was using uWSGI and nginx, I was serving static files directly with nginx. However, I wanted a single container for my project so I tried to migrate to this.

After setting it up with Django, everything seems to be working fine, except static files like css, js and images not loading. Do I need something like nginx to serve them as I did previously with this project as well?

From the docker logs I can see:
Not Found: /static/css/main.css

And if I enable debug mode, I get the standard Django error page saying:

 Using the URLconf defined in base.urls, Django tried these URL patterns, in this order:

1. [name='home'] 
2. ...

The current path, static/css/main.css, didn’t match any of these.
