Comment (by Roy Smith):
Also, the docs for urls.staticfiles_urlpatterns() (i.e.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/contrib/staticfiles/) should
also mention that staticfiles_urlpatterns() will produce incorrect
patterns for an environment where request.path differs from
request.path_info. I suppose you could add additional configuration
options to handle this case properly, but I think it would be good enough
to point out the issue and note that you need to fall back to writing the
re_path() expression yourself. And, in that case, the statement:
{{{
Note, the beginning of the pattern (r'^static/') should be your STATIC_URL
setting.
}}}
is not correct. It needs to be STATIC_URL, as modified by the upstream
web server.
