Re: collectstatic missing on Linux

Make sure the staticfiles app is in your INSTALLED_APPS setting.  That'd be my first guess.  If it is, do a manage.py console and try importing it to make sure that the django environment can see it.

The manage.py collectstatic subcommand doesn't exist on my Linux staging server but it does exist (and works) on my Win XP development machine. I'm using exactly the same settings.py on both machines.

On Linux, in a Python interpreter I can do ...

>>>from django.contrib import staticfiles
>>>

... but when I type

$/usr/bin/python /srv/www/proj/manage.py help

... it returns a list of available subcommands[1] without collectstatic in the list.

Win XP 32-bit
Python 2.7
Django 1.4a

Linux 64-bit
Python 2.6
Django 1.4a

The application itself runs under Apache on the Linux staging server if I manually copy all the static files to the STATIC_ROOT directory.

Any hints appreciated

Thanks
