I'm having trouble with a static view, it is configured to serve files from the 'assets' folder on the server, and works fine for the following '/assets/img/hdr.png','/assets/style/default.css' however when trying to serve a web font it always returns 404 not found (despite the fact I have triple checked the file is in the correct locaiton ('/assets/font.woff')

Is there something additional I need to configure to allow non img/css files to be served?

config.add_static_view(name='assets', path='assets')

Thanks

  • I don't know what library your using but try and force the Content-Type to "application/font-woff" (not tested) – Joe Doherty Dec 19 '12 at 20:56

The path argument should be an asset specification. This means you should prefix the path with the name of your package mypkg:assets.

Not sure if it's still relevant to the OP, but I hit the same problem.

The reason was that setup.py install simply didn't copy the font files, and the solution was to include all the font extensions in the MANIFEST.in file.
