Location of django: 

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/__init__.pyc

Location of django oscar:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/oscar/__init__.pyc

My static files are not getting served properly. Above is my production setting. On my local machine, the locations are:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/oscar/__init__.pyc
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/__init__.pyc

Could this be a possible reason for above problem?

    If you could explain more about your setup, it would be easier to help you. How are you serving your Django project? Are you just running `manage.py runserver` or have you setup something like an Nginx reverse proxy? – andrewsomething Oct 09 '14 at 16:16
  • I'm using Digital Ocean's service. It has gunicorn and nginx pre installed and pre-configured for my django app. – toothie Oct 09 '14 at 16:44

Oscar ships its own set of static files in oscar/static/oscar When you deploy your site, you should run manage.py collectstatic so these files are also collected in your STATIC_ROOT

On DigitalOcean's Django app, your Nginx configuration is located in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/django You may need to update the following section to point to the location of your STATIC_ROOT

    # your Django project's static files - amend as required
    location /static {
        alias /home/django/django_project/django_project/static; 
    }

  • Thank you so much for the help. Now it has got another problem though. When I set debug=False, the site gives internal error. I have put the ip address and domain name in the list of allowed hosts. – toothie Oct 10 '14 at 06:32
  • Also, all the images in my 'media' folder specified by "MEDIA_ROOT" returns a 403 forbidden error. This folder contains dynamically created and some static images too. – toothie Oct 10 '14 at 07:04
