Static files errors after deploying Django project to Linux server

Question

I am trying to deploy the django project to linux server but getting below

error: Bad Request (400)

settings.py

    from pathlib import Path
    import os

    BASE_DIR = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent
    DEBUG = False
    ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['*']

    INSTALLED_APPS = [
        'admin_interface',
        'colorfield',

        'django.contrib.admin',
        'django.contrib.auth',
        'django.contrib.contenttypes',
        'django.contrib.sessions',
        'django.contrib.messages',
        'django.contrib.staticfiles',
        'employee',
    ]

    MIDDLEWARE = [
        'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
        'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
        'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
        'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
        'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
        'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
        'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
    ]

    STATIC_URL = '/static/'
    STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')
    STATICFILES_DIRS = (os.path.join('employee/static')

    MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
    MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

output of collectstatic:

Error: Found another file with the destination path 'css/mystyle.css'. It will be ignored since only the first encountered file is collected. If this is not what you want, make sure every static file has a unique path. Please advise if any changes are required.

Which webserver you are using?

Linux is OS. Web server means nginx or apache?

Most probably issue is with NGINX server configuraion. You wsgi app service static file but NGINX server not passing outside them on 80/443 port.

Try to change/add NGINX setting as below:

location /static/{
    autoindex on;
    alias /<your_path_to the_static_folder>/;
}
