Hi I am trying to serve statics using Django and Nginx on a VPS to get my project live. My settings.py includes following.

BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
STATIC_URL = '/static/
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static', 'static')

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static', 'media')

My project folder includes:
static
----static
----media
----templates

In Nginx I got following:

upstream gunicorn_server {
  # fail_timeout=0 means we always retry an upstream even if it failed
  # to return a good HTTP response (in case the Unicorn master nukes a
  # single worker for timing out).
  server 127.0.0.1:9000 fail_timeout=0;
}

server {

    listen   80;
    server_name example.com;
    keepalive_timeout 5;
    client_max_body_size 4G;

    access_log /home/projectuser/logs/nginx-access.log;
    error_log /home/projectuser/logs/nginx-error.log;

    location /static/ {
        alias   /venv/project/static/static;
    }

    location /media/ {
        alias   /venv/project/static/media;
    }
    location / {

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_redirect off;

        if (!-f $request_filename) {
            proxy_pass http://gunicorn_server;
            break;
        }
    }

}

I can't serve static no matter what and admin panel css is not showing up.

Please advise asap.
