I am using Magento 2 (developer mode) and I just created a new theme, added a local-l.css to my /var/www/vendor/app/design/frontend/vendor/theme/web/css/source/local-l.css and when I refresh the homepage it says

404 GET http://www.vendor.dev/pub/static/version1486248173/frontend/vendor/theme/en_US/css/local-l.css

app/design/frontend/vendor/theme/Magento_Theme/layout/default_head_blocks.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"    xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../vendor/magento/framework/Module/etc/module.xsd">
<head>
    <css src="css/local-l.css" />
</head>
</page>

And doesn't load my styles.. I tried clearing cache, view_preprocessed, pub/static/*, everything and I tried redeploying using static:mode:deploy... nothing is working for me.

Any ideas?

  • Seem that your custom css puts wrong place, it should be under web/css folder : app/design/frontend/vendor/theme/web/css/local-l.css Commented Feb 5, 2017 at 1:48

Seem that your custom css put wrong place, it should be under web/css folder in your custom theme : app/design/frontend/vendor/theme/web/css/local-l.css.

Remember to run static content deploy again.

You have "Sign Static Files" options set to Yes in your backend : http://docs.magento.com/m2/ce/user_guide/system/static-file-signature.html

Magento 2 add versionXXXXXXX to his URL to avoid "extrem" browser caching.
Browser cache URLs with versionXXXXXXX in it so when there is a new release of static content Magento set URLs to versionYYYY to force content cache to be renewed.

For comparison is like ?version=XXXX for Wordpress files.

You have 2 solutions :
1. Set Sign Static Files option to No
2. Add this line to you host configuration (here NGINX) : https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/develop/nginx.conf.sample#L101

location /static/ {
    # Remove signature of the static files that is used to overcome the browser cache
    location ~ ^/static/version {
        rewrite ^/static/(version\d*/)?(.*)$ /static/$2 last;
    }
}
