I am running the Traefik Ingress Controller on Kubernetes (AKS). I've successfully deployed my Django application using the Traefik Ingress but it's not currently loading any static files (and therefore the styling isn't working).

Static files are served from a custom NGINX container with /static. So if my domain name is xyz.com, static is served from xyz.com/static.

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: nginxstaticservice
  labels:
    app: nginxstatic
spec:
  selector:
    k8s-app: traefik-ingress-lb
  ports:
    - name: http
      port: 80
      targetPort: 80
      protocol: TCP
  selector:
    app: nginxstatic

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: nginxstatic-ingress
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: traefik
    traefik.frontend.rule.type: PathPrefixStrip
    # traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/frontend-entry-points: http,https
spec:
  rules:
  - host: xyz.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /static
        backend:
          serviceName: nginxstaticservice
          servicePort: http

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: nginxstatic-deployment
  labels:
    app: nginxstatic
spec:
  replicas: 1
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: nginxstatic
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: nginxstatic
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: nginxstatic
        image: nginxstatic:latest
        ports:
        - containerPort: 80
      imagePullSecrets:

This is the default.conf running on the NGINX container (this was previously working in a Website configuration.

server {
   listen                      80;
   server_name                 _;
   client_max_body_size        200M;
   set                         $cache_uri $request_uri;

   location                    = /favicon.ico { log_not_found off; access_log off; }
   location                    = /robots.txt  { log_not_found off; access_log off; }
   ignore_invalid_headers      on;
   add_header                  Access-Control-Allow_Origin *;

   location /static {
       autoindex on;
       alias /static;
   }

   location /media {
       autoindex on;
       alias /media;
   }

   access_log                  /var/log/nginx/access.log;
   error_log                   /var/log/nginx/error.log;
}

Why PathPrefixStrip? That would mean that Nginx would see paths without that component, which doesn't appear to match your config.coderanger
Thanks, that resolved it. I've removed it. I was getting it confused with my docker-compose syntax where I had used this previously.Rutnet

Resolved in comments, PathPrefixStrip was used incorrectly which caused Nginx to see different paths than expected.
