15765	Serving static files in development doesn't work with staticfiles activated	Florian Sening	nobody	"I have a few static files living in STATIC_ROOT that get served correctly when staticfiles is not in INSTALLED_APPS. So using things like http://localhost:8000/static/myfolder/ just work. However when I enable staticfiles things like http://localhost:8000/static/myfolder/ yield a 404 saying ""'myfolder\' could not be found"". Maybe i'm using staticfiles wrong (i have no idea where site-specific stuff (e.g. favicon, robots, site-global css, etc. should go) but shouldn't the contents in STATIC_ROOT just get served?

settings.py:
{{{
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '../static/').replace('\\', '/')
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = '/static/admin/'
}}}

urls.py:
{{{
urlpatterns += static(settings.STATIC_URL, document_root=settings.STATIC_ROOT, show_indexes=True)
}}}"	Bug	closed	contrib.staticfiles	1.3	Normal	fixed			Accepted	0	0	0	0	0	0
