Assets pipline Rails 4 not see file with md5 fingerprint

Question

I have rails 4 application + ruby 2.0 in development environment all works fine but whan i try to deploy my project througt capistrano i have problem with assets the application do not see assets fonts, css js e.t.c.

This is mine production.rb file:

  config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join('app', 'assets', 'font')
  config.assets.precompile << ['*.js', '*.css','*.jpg','*,woff','*.ttf']

The comand RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile create precompile file with md5 hash fontawesome-webfont-62877-e70f92449ebfddada3d455eb44542655.woff but appication have error 404. enter image description here

enter image description here The same story with images and css only to_net_me-581dde7532a5978e49036426aa617523.js and to_net_me-515aa8a1f84b86e9084a3e925e512023.css have 200 status code.

This is my layout/application.html.slim:

doctype 5
html
  head
    title 2net.me
    /![if lt IE 9]
      | <script src="http://html5shim.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    = stylesheet_link_tag    "to_net_me", :media => "all"
    = javascript_include_tag "to_net_me"
    = csrf_meta_tags
  body
    / = render partial: 'layouts/flash', locals: { flash: flash } unless flash.empty?
    = render 'layouts/header'
    /main content render here
    .container-fluid-full
      -if current_user
        .row-fluid
          = render "shared/menu/main_menu"
          = yield
      -else
        = yield
    = render 'layouts/footer'

the problem not in how to create fonts the problem in when you precompile assets for production font creates but with md5 fingerprint. But after in Network console have fontawesome-webfont-62877.woff 404 error. It looks like rails do not see precompile assets in public/assets fontawesome-webfont-62877-e70f92449ebfddada3d455eb44542655.woff but when i am add file fontawesome-webfont-62877.woff without md5 it is work fine. How to create precompile that rails see fonts in production.

in your screenshots you have all those 404 calls on localhost how is that going to work in production? — phoet

There is a gem called "non-stupid-digest-assets" which will create files both with and without md5 hash. You can use that.
