Uploading my Git. collectstatic error

When I am calling pa_autoconfigure_django.py https://github.com/khizirsiddiqui/gammaLearning.git from the bash console, it is giving error when running collectstatic. Error:

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command

'[PosixPath('/home/khizirsiddiqui/.virtualenvs/khizirsiddiqui.pythonanywhere.com/bin/python'), PosixPath('/home/khizirsiddiqui/khizirsiddiqui.pythonanywhere.com/manage.py'), 'collectstatic', '--noinput']' returned non-zero exit status 1.

Please help me getting the site up. Thanks in adv. :)

Could you give the full error trace that it printed out? There should be some indication of why that process exited with an error code in there.

Is anything printed out before all of that? There should be a more detailed indication of how it failed.

If you look at 

            FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/khizirsiddiqui/khizirsiddiqui.pythonanywhere.com/static'

Isn't that just because your gitrepo is supposed to have a static folder in it but you don't have it?

Staff conrad | 4232 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | June 2, 2018, 3:37 p.m. | permalink

umm... But that works just fine in localhost.

deleted-user-2225482 | 17 posts | June 4, 2018, 9:50 a.m. | permalink

do you already have the static directory created on localhost but not on pythonanywhere?

Staff conrad | 4232 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | June 4, 2018, 12:26 p.m. | permalink

My git repository is updated. I am using exact same files at same locations on my localhost.

deleted-user-2225482 | 17 posts | June 8, 2018, 10:59 a.m. | permalink

Does that folder exist?

Staff glenn | 9718 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | June 8, 2018, 11:45 a.m. | permalink

static folder exists in one of my django apps folder (in my localhost and in git repo too)

deleted-user-2225482 | 17 posts | June 9, 2018, 5:11 a.m. | permalink

If the tool says something doesn't exist, then you should check that it exists where the tool is running, not in some other places. Does it exist in your PythonAnywhere account?

Staff glenn | 9718 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | June 9, 2018, 9:31 a.m. | permalink

My website works mostly fine by correcting the static URL in settings but the django admin interface doesn't have any CSS. I guess maybe the error is somewhat related to it.

See http://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/DjangoStaticFiles/ and http://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/DebuggingStaticFiles/

Staff glenn | 9718 posts | PythonAnywhere staff | June 11, 2018, 10:16 a.m. | permalink

For somebody new, it could be that one has included /static in .gitignore file . Remove that.

deleted-user-7958949 | 1 post | June 29, 2020, 7:19 p.m. | permalink

Normally I would expect that the root static directory would be in the .gitignore file; you just need to remember to run the collectstatic management command after pulling any changes to PythonAnywhere.
