rails assets urls don't have digest when calling from css.scss

Question

I deployed my project to production and some of my assets don't work. Those assets, which I use in html.erb with

<%= image_tag('outstaffing/outstaff2.svg') %>

work normally and return

<img src="/assets/outstaffing/outstaff2-eade8e303c63a428e7430e84866b732dae91cda0639d8d3d422c2ee86fb254aa.svg" alt="Outstaff2 eade8e303c63a428e7430e84866b732dae91cda0639d8d3d422c2ee86fb254aa">

However fonts and some images don't. I have app/assets/fonts/RobotoCondensedRegular.ttf and app/assets/images/common/footer.svg which I try to call from css files.

style.css.scss

@font-face {
   font-family: 'RobotoRegular';
   src: url(font-path('RobotoCondensedRegular.ttf'))  format('truetype');
}

#some_div{
   background: asset-url('common/footer.svg');
}

After precompilling I have public/assets/styles-h5digest.css with

@font-face{
  font-family:'RobotoRegular';
  src:url("/assets/RobotoCondensedRegular-4a7c36df4318fee50a8159c3a0ebde4572abab65447ae4a651c2fe87212302b5.ttf") format("truetype")
}

This should work but returns me errors:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)

Server is trying to load assets/fonts/RobotoCondensedRegular.ttf but file name should be with digest. The same thing is with footer image.

I have already tried to change assets.rb, production.rb and application.rb in many ways. Moreover, I tried different extensions of my css files (css, css.scss, scss, css.erb) and helpers (asset-url, image-url, asset-data-url, asset_data_path, <%= asset_path() %>).

I am using Rails 4.2.0 and ruby 2.2.3.

My production.rb

config.serve_static_files = true
config.assets.js_compressor = :uglifier
config.assets.css_compressor = :sass
config.assets.compile = false
config.assets.digest = true

My application.rb

config.assets.enabled = true
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join('app', 'assets', 'fonts')
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join('app', 'assets', 'images', 'img', 'main')

My assets.rb

Rails.application.config.assets.precompile << /\.(?:svg|eot|woff|ttf|jpg|png)\z/
Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += ['styles.css', 'careers.css', 'team.css', 'home.css', 'services.css', 'contacts.css']

Error from log:

"GET /assets/fonts/RobotoCondensedBold.ttf HTTP/1.1" 500 1812 "http://...ip..../assets/application-6b568a81a81290ff96d145fa1f76bbf33919b85dad0f4235d8bf8759787a5076.css"

I think problem is in my server (apache) but i have no solution.

Can you run RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile locally? — Anthony E

run this at localhost, run server in production mode and all is good. pushed to apache and got the same error — MaruniakS

And you're not caching anything in your browser? Only fonts and images don't have a digest? — Anthony E

only images and fonts from css files don't have digest) they do have in folders, but not in call — MaruniakS

I added these two gems to my Gemfile:

gem 'rails_serve_static_assets'
gem 'rails_stdout_logging'

And set in my production.rb

config.serve_static_files = false

Now all fonts and images are working good.
