CSS files don't load

[Alex-Sichkar]

If there are no generated CSS files, they are generated but don't load after first dev server start (the browser gets 404). Only after restarting dev server they load.
Django 1.9.3, django-sass-processor 0.3.4

Would be awesome if this were to be fixed. On our test server we encounter this issue a lot...

@jrief do you know what causes this? I haven't come across this problem yet.

[jrief]

I actually can't reproduce it, so anybody who is able to reproduce this bug, please spend some time and investigate.

While using with django-compressor, When Debug is False, it fails to compile the css.
Ex:

DEBUG = False
TEMPLATE_DEBUG = False
COMPRESS_ENABLED = False

When COMPRESS_ENABLED is true it throughs 500 error.

[AndreasBackx]

@udhaya0000 when DEBUG is set to False then you have to compile it beforehand with the compilescss command. This is documented in the README. Use SASS_PROCESSOR_ENABLED if you want it to automatically generate CSS files when DEBUG is set to False in order to generate the CSS files per request.

We are also gonna need more information than the status code. You perhaps configured it badly.

[udhaya0000]

@AndreasBackx Thanks SASS_PROCESSOR_ENABLED = True works, but python manage.py compilescss gives the following error ImportError: Could not import settings 'app.settings.prod' (Is it on sys.path? Is there an import error in the settings file?): No module named unipath

Also the collectstatic PATTERN not working if I use .scss, but it works if I change it to *.scss

[AndreasBackx]

@udhaya0000 please provide us with full stacktraces, exception messages are not worth much.

That pattern is working how it should...

[jrief]

@Arany reported that this happens if you invoke ./manage.py collectstatic, when the folder referenced by settings.STATIC_ROOT has not been created yet.

It is an old issue, but I experience this too.
