Hello @kartik,

1) The first thing we should do with our newly created project files is adjust the settings. Open the settings file with your text editor:

gedit myproject/settings.py

At the bottom of the file, we will add a line to configure this directory. Django uses the STATIC_ROOT setting to determine the directory where these files should go. We'll use a bit of Python to tell it to use a directory called "static" in our project's main directory:

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/")

2) We can collect all of the static content into the directory location we configured by typing:

./manage.py collectstatic

You will have to confirm the operation. The static files will be placed in a directory called static within your project directory.

3)You need mod-wsgi adapter to configure Django in Apache install wsgi lib like below.

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi sudo a2enmod wsgi

4)At the bottom of file, /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf

WSGIPythonPath /var/www/html/myproject/ 
WSGIProcessGroup myproject
WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/html/myproject/myproject/wsgi.py


  Alias /static /var/www/html/myproject/static/

<Directory /var/www/html/myproject/static>
    Require all granted
</Directory>

<Directory /var/www/html/myproject/myproject>
    <Files wsgi.py>
         Order deny,allow
        Require all granted
    </Files>
</Directory>

Alias /media/ /var/www/html/myproject/media/
<Directory /var/www/html/myproject/media>
Require all granted
</Directory> 
WSGIDaemonProcess myproject python-path=/var/www/html/myproject/

5)Restart the apache2 server:

sudo service apache2 restart

6)Now go to Localhost:

Hope it works!!

Thank You!
