Trying to get static root set properly,

Went through the tango with Django tutorial and stuck on this part.

Basically this is my setting files, and the static folder is linked below in the tree.

C:.

├───media

│   └───locations

│       └───2018

│           └───11

│               └───11

│                   └───20

│                       └───18

├───Spaces

essentially just want the root for static to be where i've put "static" in the directory.

Essentially I'm uploading to Heroku ATM, and I'm getting an error that it can't find the static root.

When changing my STATIC_ROOT to,

STATICFILES_DIRS = [STATIC_DIR,  ]

STATIC_URL = '/static/'

MEDIA_ROOT = MEDIA_DIR #where to look for files

MEDIA_URL = '/media/' #where to serve files from on url

WSGI_APPLICATION = 'Space.wsgi.application'

STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'static')

I get this issue :(
