Django, Nginx, Gunicorn static files not working

I am trying to build a website on a CentOS server. My stack consists of Django, PostgreSQL, and Nginx/Gunicorn. My version of Nginx is 1.7.7. I am having trouble configuring the server so that my static files (css/js) is accessible to my Django app.

Here's what the configuration looks like:

In /var/www/domain.com/

/var/www/domain.com
    ├── Repository/
    │   ├── wsgi.py
    │   ├── manage.py
    │   ├── static
    │   │    ├── css/
    │   │    └── js/
    │   ├── apps/
    │   └── more apps...
    ├── error/
    │   └── 404.html
    ├── public/
    │   ├── 400.html
    │   ├── 404.html
    │   └── 500.html

In /etc/nginx/conf.d/django.conf

upstream django_project {
  server 127.0.0.1:8003 fail_timeout=0;
}

And finally, in /etc/nginx/sites/01-domain.com.conf

server {
    #listen   80; ## listen for ipv4; this line is default and implied
    #listen   [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; ## listen for ipv6

    #root /var/www/domain.com;
    index index.html index.htm;

    # Make site accessible from http://localhost/
    server_name domain.com;

    root /var/www/domain.com/public;

    #location / {
    #       # First attempt to serve request as file, then
    #       # as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
    #       #try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
    #       # Uncomment to enable naxsi on this location
    #       # include /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules
    #}

    location /static/ { # STATIC_URL
            #root /var/www/firewall/static/;
            root /var/www/domain.com/Repository/static/; # STATIC_ROOT
            expires 30d;
    }

    location ^~ /media/ { # MEDIA_URL
            root /var/www/domain.com/Repository; # MEDIA_ROOT
    }

    location ^~ /admin/media/js/admin/ {
            root /opt/python-3.4.2/lib/python3.4/site-packages/Django-1.7.1-py3.4.egg/django/contrib/admin/static;
    }

    #location ^~ /admin/media/image {
    #        root /opt/python-2.7.8/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/static/admin/image/;
    #}

    #location ^~ /admin/media/css {
    #        root /opt/python-2.7.8/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/static/admin/css/;
    #}


    location /static/admin { # MEDIA_URL
            root /opt/python-3.4.2/lib/python3.4/site-packages/Django-1.7.1-py3.4.egg/django/contrib/admin;
    }

    #location /admin/img { # MEDIA_URL
    #        root /opt/python-2.7.8/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/static; # MEDIA_ROOT
    #}

    #location /admin/js { # MEDIA_URL
    #        root /opt/python-2.7.8/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/static; # MEDIA_ROOT
    #}


    location / {
            try_files $uri @app_proxy;

    }


    location @app_proxy {
        proxy_set_header   Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
        proxy_redirect off;

        proxy_pass   http://django_project;
    }

    error_page 400 401 402 403 404 /400.html;
    #location = /400.html {
    #    root /var/www/domain.com/error;
    #}

    error_page 500 502 503 504 /500.html;
    #location = /500.html {
    #    root /var/www/domain.com/error;
    #}

    #location / {
    #        include fastcgi_params;
    #        #fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:8080;
    #        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8003;
    #}

}

The file above I somewhat copied from an example I saw. I'm pretty sure the two parts I need help with are the lines starting with location /static and location ^~ /media/. I think these are what serve my actual code, so if there is a problem with the configuration of my server or my files are in the wrong place, can someone please tell me how it is supposed to be?

Also, here is my Repository/homeapp/settings.py

Try to remove trailing directory name in nginx config:

root /var/www/domain.com/Repository/; # STATIC_ROOT

Because in your case nginx will serve files like this:

/var/www/domain.com/Repository/static/static/...

Check your nginx error log for lines like:

open() "/var/www/domain.com/Repository/static/static/.../somefile" failed (2: No such file or directory),
