I compiled my assets without errors they work in development environment without problems but they all broke in production. I checked my log file it seems that it's not referencing the correct location. This is one of the errors.

Why it's assuming that fonts directory is located under homeFoods not /homeFoods/app/assets/ ?
application.rb
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join('app', 'assets', 'fonts')
config.assets.precompile += %w( .svg .eot .woff .ttf )
bootstrap.css
font-face {
font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
src: url('/assets/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot');
src: url('/assets/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot?#iefix')
format('embedded-opentype'), url('/assets/glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff') format('woff'), url('/assets/glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf') format('truetype'), url('/assets/glyphicons-halflings-regular.svg#glyphicons_halflingsregular') format('svg');}
I did try this approach Bootstrap 3+Rails 4 - Certain Glyphicons not working which used to work but not anymore.I do not know why it was working because the path he's specifying is not correct, vendor does not contain fonts folder.
config.assets.paths << "#{Rails}/vendor/assets/fonts"
