I'm using apache+mod_wsgi for django.
And all css/js/images are served through nginx.
For some odd, reason when others/friends/colleagues try accessing the site, jquery/css is not getting loaded for them, hence the page looks jumbled up.
My html files use code like this -
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://x.x.x.x:8000/css/custom.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://1x.x.x.x:8000/js/custom.js"></script>
My nginx configuration in sites-available is like this -
server {   
     listen   8000;   
     server_name  localhost;
     access_log  /var/log/nginx/aa8000.access.log;    
     error_log  /var/log/nginx/aa8000.error.log;    
       location / {   
           index  index.html index.htm;    
       }    
     location /static/ {    
        autoindex on;    
        root   /opt/aa/webroot/;    
     }    
 }   
There is a directory /opt/aa/webroot/static/ which have corresponding css & js directories.
The odd thing is that the pages show fine when I access them.
I have cleared my cache/etc, but the page loads fine for me, from various browsers.
Also, I don't see any 404 any error in the nginx log files. Actually the logs for nginx are not getting refreshed at all.
I restarted the nginx server using root, is that incorrect ? There is a user www-data defined in the nginx configuration file.
Any pointers would be great.
