Source of the image throbber.gif is wrong

[rosesonfire]

the source given is
src="rest_framework_swagger/images/throbber.gif"

it should be
src="static/rest_framework_swagger/images/throbber.gif"

[ariovistus]

effectively, what should be happening is

src="{{STATIC_URL}}rest_framework_swagger/images/throbber.gif"

if you aren't getting that, either STATIC_URL is misconfigured, or this line:

django-rest-swagger/rest_framework_swagger/templates/rest_framework_swagger/base.html

Line 50 in e917f70

window.static_url = '{{STATIC_URL}}';

isn't being run.

[rosesonfire]

Yea! that line is the problem.
While browsing,
window.static_url = '';

[ariovistus]

so STATIC_URL is an empty string. maybe set

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

in your settings.py?

[rosesonfire]

it is set already, I'm afraid :/

[ariovistus]

hmm. are you using the default templates (base.html and index.html)?

Does this help:

I've bumped into this today as well using the stock templates. I am using version 0.3.2 I hacked up a template override and can see that {{STATIC_URL}} returns empty. I tried changing it to {% static "" %} which does return the proper value (/static/ in my case), but still the image 404s with the wrong path. All the other static assets references in that link above work (and they are also using the static tag)

I made the following adjustment to the template: window.static_url = '{% static "" %}';, Looking at the js I can see its using src='"+ window.static_url +"rest_framework_swagger/images/throbber.gif' which sure seeme like it should work, but the static prefix is simply not part of the URL when the resource is fetched.

Its almost as if its attempting the fetch the image before that JS has fired but I don't know javascript well enough to know if that is the case for sure.

pr #334 made the same fix. maybe try using master?

[dpetzel]

I'll give master a shot, but when I mad that change it still didn't work properly.
