How to display Django static files correctly under Amazon Linux2 + Apache environment

Introduction

I will write down the setting method to display the static files (css and images) of the Django project correctly in EC2 (Amazon Linux2) + Apache environment as a reminder.

environment

Settings

The method of displaying static files differs between the Django development server and the Web server such as Apache. First, rewrite the contents of settings.py as follows.

settings.py


STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static') #For production
# STATICFILES_DIRS = [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static")] #For development

After that, execute the following command to aggregate the static files under each application into the static folder directly under the project.

$ python3 manage.py collectstatic

Next, create an Apache configuration file under /etc/httpd/conf.d/. Here, it is created with the name "myproject.conf".

Execute the following command to edit the configuration file.

sudo vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/myproject.conf

myproject.conf



LoadModule wsgi_module /usr/local/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi-py37.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so

ServerName <List the public IP address of EC2>

WSGIScriptAlias / /home/ec2-user/myproject/myproject/wsgi.py
WSGIPythonPath /home/ec2-user/myproject:/usr/bin/python3

<Directory /home/ec2-user/myproject/myproject>
  <Files wsgi.py>
     Require all granted
  </Files>
</Directory>

Alias /static/ /home/ec2-user/myproject/static/
<Directory /home/ec2-user/myproject/static>
  Require all granted
</Directory>

Lines 1-12 are for associating Apache with mod_wsgi. The 14th and subsequent lines are the description to allow static folders.

Finally restart Apache.

sudo service httpd restart

The static file should now be displayed correctly.
