How to use a theme with Redmine 6.0.4 and puma

Greetings,

I have an otherwise-working Redmine 6.0.4 instance and I am trying to install a theme that is listed as being 6.x compatible. The theme can be loaded if placed in /themes but its css clearly doesn't load when it is selected. When I reviewed the instructions on the Themes wiki page, there is a note that in addition to the change in theme folder location, it is also necessary to serve /themes explicitly and an example for this is given for Apache. What is the example for the default puma server that Redmine uses?

Hey,

i've the same issue with Zenmine theme and some others.

Redmine try to load application.css but in fact, in the assets folder, the file is called application-cd9683d5.css , same file but renamed with a small hash.
This is why the theme is not functionnal.

I wonder why ?
What can be done to solve this issue ?
Disable the hash rename ?

The default theme is working though

Thanks for any clue !

I managed to find a temporary solution.
The issue is caused by ruby fingerprinting files which can be disabled in the file config/environments/production.rb by adding this line config.assets.digest = false . It will remove fingerprinting.

I suppose that the correct way to fix the issue is in the hands of theme developers since 6.0.4 introduce the fingerprinting which is a good thing though.

I forgot to mention, Puma need to be restarted, i retarted the docker image ...
