What you have above should work for requests for files in the directory below.
/usr/local/var/www/example.com/htdocs/static
… though it won’t handle requests for anything else, so if a file is located anywhere other than within that directory, NGINX won’t serve it.
If you’re seeing errors, please run:
tail -20 /var/log/nginx/error.log
… and paste the output in a code block.
I dont have to add nothing in my code like {% load static from staticfiles %}
Do not forget to configure these files:
/etc/systemd/system/gunicorn.socket /etc/systemd/system/gunicorn.service
very careful with the user sammy, replace with the real user
