I am trying to precompile all of my assets for production. When I run RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile not all of my assets are precompiling. I have tried to use the methods that others have suggested in other similar questions but they have not worked for me. For starters here is what my assets.rb looks like:
Rails.application.config.assets.version = '1.0'
Rails.application.config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join('node_modules')
Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w(creative/manifest.js creative/manifest.css images/* bootstrap/* fonts/* magnific-popup/* morphext/* owlcarousel2/* rs-plugin-5/* stylesheets/* javascripts/*)
As you can see where I am precompiling I have tried to add for example directory/* to include everything. Here are the files I am trying to include and everything in them (These are in the Assets directory):
bootstrap
fonts
javascripts
morphext
rs-plugin-5
config
images
magnific-popup
owlcarousel2
stylesheets
Here is what is precompiling in my public directory when I run the precompile take a look at the image under public and as you can see many of the directories are not in there I have even opened up each folder to see if they are in another folder and no nothing is there:
The last part is when I run rails s -e production and I navigate to Localhost:3000 I keep getting a 500 error and nothing is showing. There are no errors in the console in chrome nor the terminal so I cannot see what my page would look like locally for production. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Update
Here is my production.log it looks like it is not getting the necessary assets:

UPDATE 2
Here is the image of my asset folder structure:
I also noticed that there is another assets folder because it is precompiling the rs-plugin's structure and not the other folders see image:
Here is my application.rb:
require_relative 'boot'
require 'rails/all'
# Require the gems listed in Gemfile, including any gems
# you've limited to :test, :development, or :production.
Bundler.require(*Rails.groups)
module Cnd
class Application < Rails::Application
# Initialize configuration defaults for originally generated Rails version.
config.load_defaults 5.1
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "fonts")
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "images")
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "bootstrap")
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "rs-plugin-5")
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "magnific-popup")
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "owlcarousel2")
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("app", "assets", "morphext")
# Settings in config/environments/* take precedence over those specified here.
# Application configuration should go into files in config/initializers
# -- all .rb files in that directory are automatically loaded.
end

To compile your assets locally, run the assets:precompile task locally on your app. Make sure to use the production environment so that the production version of your assets are generated. A public/assets directory will be created. Inside this directory you'll find a manifest.
The asset pipeline provides a framework to concatenate and minify or compress JavaScript and CSS assets. It also adds the ability to write these assets in other languages such as CoffeeScript, Sass and ERB. Prior to Rails 3.1 these features were added through third-party Ruby libraries such as Jammit and Sprockets.
The clean it removes the old versions of the precompiled assets while leaving the new assets in place. Show activity on this post. rake assets:clean removes compiled assets. It is run by cap deploy:assets:clean to remove compiled assets, generally from a remote server.
If you’re deploying your Rails application to a production environment, it’s ideal to precompile your assets. To do this, you’ll want to run, RAILS_ENV=production tells Rails to compile the production version of the assets. assets:precompile is a Rails provided rake task that has instructions for compiling the assets.
If you’re using webpacker in your project, the assets:precompile consists of two stages; we will call these two stages, sprockets and webpacker. Now we want to execute these two stages separately to find out which one is your problem.
In previous versions of Rails, all assets were located in subdirectories of public such as images, javascripts and stylesheets. With the asset pipeline, the preferred location for these assets is now the app/assets directory. Files in this directory are served by the Sprockets middleware. Assets can still be placed in the public hierarchy.
By saying I want to precompile all my assets you are saying that you want all the files added or edited in your asset pipeline to generate a precompiled fingerprinted version to be used in production. How does precompilation works?
Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w(creative/manifest.js creative/manifest.css images/* bootstrap/* fonts/* magnific-popup/* morphext/* owlcarousel2/* rs-plugin-5/* stylesheets/* javascripts/*)
but as I see from your screenshot you have a folder named assets inside your public/assets directory.
Your fingerprinted-files precompiled files are inside public/assets/assets instead of public/assets
This means that if those files are being push to production (check that they are in your git repository, if not do a git add), you are not going to be able to see them at the path localhost:3000/assets/<nameofyourfile> because your directory structure is changed, maybe you could display them at localhost:3000/assets/assets/<nameofyourfile>, but If I was you I would keep the normal directory structure.
Precompiling your assets means creating a fingerprinted version of it
By saying I want to precompile all my assets you are saying that you want all the files added or edited in your asset pipeline to generate a precompiled fingerprinted version to be used in production.
How does precompilation works?
You can read chapter 4.1 of the Asset Pipeline Documentation, basically sprockets uses a file called .sprockets-manifest-fingerprint.json to check which is the latest version of the fingerprinted files to use in production. This is why sometimes deleting the public/assets folder solves problems, because you delete all the old files including the sprockets-manifest.json which may not be updated with the latest fingerprint.
Also development will fallback to the files in your app/assets folder if it does not find them in your public/assets folder, that is why you are getting the error only in production.
You can read hear how to disable this behaviours
chapter 3.1 and 3.2
So do those steps, because errors are usually easier to solve in development, as you do not have to push a git to see the result. Sometimes files are included in .gitignore or you need to manually add that file with git add app/assets/<nameofthefolder>/<nameofthefile>
Also we did see your public folder in the screenshot, but we did not see you app/assets folder structure and any of your sprockets settings, so maybe it is not about adding a bounty to the question to get a solution, but just giving us the information necessary to find the solution.
Right now this is a generic opinion based question
Also I believe you changed the /assets path by doing config.assets.prefix = "/some_other_path"
190
First make sure of this if you want your rails application to serve.
# Disable serving static files from the `/public` folder by default since
# Apache or NGINX already handles this.
config.public_file_server.enabled = ENV['RAILS_SERVE_STATIC_FILES'].present?
Regarding assets compilation be aware that you may need to add into your application.css or .js if you are talking about css or js respectively. Check this.
For example (like in the link above)
app/assets/javascripts/home.js
lib/assets/javascripts/moovinator.js
vendor/assets/javascripts/slider.js
vendor/assets/somepackage/phonebox.js
would be referenced in a manifest like this:
//= require home
//= require moovinator
//= require slider
//= require phonebox
Assets inside subdirectories can also be accessed.
app/assets/javascripts/sub/something.js
is referenced as:
//= require sub/something
A few things I noticed:
AdobeStock_95578405.jpegimage?Rails.application.config.assets.precompile in your config/initializers/assets.rb file.
45
This could be wrong, but it looks like you left out config from your list of precompiled directories. Try updating your list to:
Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w(creative/manifest.js creative/manifest.css images/* bootstrap/* fonts/* magnific-popup/* morphext/* owlcarousel2/* rs-plugin-5/* stylesheets/* javascripts/* config/*)
