Is there a way that I can use this with Heroku and Django 1.4?

[natea]

The way I used it was to pip uninstall dj-static and then re-install it using the Django 1.4 compat fork/branch:

pip install git+https://github.com/wnh/dj-static.git@feature/django-1.4-compat#egg=dj-static 

[sangel10]

and then "git+https://github.com/wnh/dj-static.git@feature/django-1.4-compat#egg=dj-static " should get written to requirements.txt when I freeze, right?

[wnh]

I'm just using the the master zip file straight from github (https://github.com/wnh/dj-static/archive/master.zip)

Although you need to put the URL explicitly in your requirements.txt file, because pip freeze will still report it as dj-static==0.0.5

I tried both of these methods and both worked locally but when I pushed to Heroku I got the same error. Is anyone using this successfully with Heroku and Django 1.4?:

you need to wipe the virtualenv on heroku clean by creating a runtime.txt with this line: python-2.7.3

and then re-deploy to herok.
