I know that there are a lot of questions about that, but to be honest most of them stays unanswered or the solutions do not work.
I have "simple" problem. When I set Debug to False and push it to heroku I get "Server Error (500)". I read those topics:
Heroku server error (500) when Debug = False , whitenoise could not find style.css
Whenever debug=False in django, Heroku gives Server Error (500) and when debug=True no error
https://www.reddit.com/r/djangolearning/comments/acj65x/why_am_i_getting_a_500_server_error_when/
https://teamtreehouse.com/community/heroku-bad-request-500
And I tried their solutions but it still don't work. Only solution that I didn't test and is supposed to help is to get rid of whitenoise. This one is kinda "no go" for me.
What Can I do about this error?
Thanks and Cheers!
EDIT:
Here is my log. I tried to comment out white noise but It didn't help.
I was looking in my code but I don't have any reference to "favicon.ico". Also, I tried to run collectstatic because I found some topics related to that but it didn't work for me.
First it asked me:
You have requested to collect static files at the destination
location as specified in your settings:
/app/staticfiles
And then I got error:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/app/static'
Which is weird, because first it confirmed with me that I overrited this folder from static to staticfiles. In my main directory I have folder "staticfiles". In my app folder I have folder "static". And with Debug off everything is working.

I think I got it. The solution is working. But I think that it's also very weird. I would appreciate if someone could comment why is it like that.
You can leave whitenoise, you can make a little bit tidying up with static files dirs. Make it look like that:
STATIC_URL = '/static/'
STATICFILES_DIRS = (
os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static'),
)
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'whitenoise.storage.CompressedManifestStaticFilesStorage'
But it isn't necessary I think. (It is also best to keep your "static" folder in your main project folder).
But The big fix is (working on django 3):
You need to run
python manage.py collectstatic
Locally ! And then submit it to heroku. And then, everything is working with Debug set to False. I tried to keep collectstatic just with .keep file. I tried to commit only .json hoping that it will be repopulated with new collectstatic files. But no. It is working only if I run collectstatic locally and then commit EVERYTHING to heroku.
If someone have more understanding of this issue and could explain it to me I would be really grateful.
In the mean time I hope that someone else will also benefit from this solution.
I found answer on this question - ValueError: Missing staticfiles manifest entry for 'favicon.ico' . Thank you very much emazzotta, also I didn't have to get rid of whitenoise and It is working in django3.
