I was having this issue just in my production environment. I have an icon that is in my static files. I can load it through https://mydomain/static/img/favico.ico, but at the same time I get a 500 error for the following url https://mydomain/favico.ico . <- this url does not exist in my project.

I can't replicate in my local environment. I already did collectstatic.

  • maybe wrong in settings file in `STATIC_URL` ? – Ngoc Pham Dec 04 '18 at 07:19
  • Have you checked your logs to determine where the 500 error comes from? You should have 3 logs to check: the web server (apache or nginx), your app server (gunicorn or uwsgi or mod_wsgi) and your django app (`LOGGING` settings) – dirkgroten Dec 04 '18 at 10:37

The default favicon URL is /favicon.ico.

You should change it in your template to what you need:

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="{% static 'img/favico.png' %}"/>

make change in href and type according to your favicon file.
