Instead of Postorius Logo I've got text "Mailman logo Postorius" on the page. "View Page Source" in browser shows: <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/static/postorius/img/favicon.ico"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/static/postorius/libs/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/static/django-mailman3/css/main.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/static/postorius/css/style.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/static/postorius/libs/fonts/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css" type="text/css" media="all" />

Mailman Web has the following configuration:

/etc/mailman3/settings.py

# Mailman Web configuration file. # /etc/mailman3/settings.py

from mailman_web.settings.base import * from mailman_web.settings.mailman import *

# 'collectstatic' command will copy all the static files here. # Alias this location from your webserver to /static STATIC_ROOT = '/opt/mailman/web/static'

All static files are placed in /opt/mailman/web/static

Why dont static files get found ? If I set Debug = True then static files are getting found. Why ? But in production mode Debug should be set False. How to solve static files problem in production ?

If you installed Mailman3 using your Distros packages, then check this: https://wiki.list.org/x/12812344 Otherwise you could follow this HOWTO: https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/virtualenv.html and it may work easily.
