further is used the command:
python manage.py lms --settings=production print_setting STATIC_ROOT
to find the actual cause of the error and I found this:

Hi @mahesh1b!
Those warnings shouldn’t be a problem. I don’t see any error message. Did you get a stack trace in the command?
Did it work before or is it the first time you run this?
Btw, I encourage you to move to the latest versions, Maple or Lilac to have better support!

mahesh1b · March 21, 2022, 3:46am

Hi @Andres.Aulasneo
I was trying to recompile the theme which I copied from the juniper version since then I am facing this error and the CSS changes are not being reflected.
Can you please tell me more about the stack trace? (How to check it? , any resource about the stack trace?)
Thanks

Andres.Aulasneo · March 21, 2022, 11:20am

Hi @mahesh1b ,

Try adding -d option to the paver command to enable debugging.
Looks like the problem is in compiling sass. You can try paver compile_sass lms --settings=production -d. This will compile only the lms and cms assets. If you are using comprehensive themes, you can add --themes=<theme directory> to compile one by one and check which one has problems.

mahesh1b · March 21, 2022, 12:26pm

Hi @Andres.Aulasneo
I was able to execute the paver compile_sass lms --settings=production command without the -d and --themes= parameter

And here is the output of command

Looks like you have a permission problem. When you created the themes folder did you use sudo? Try changing the owner and group of the themes directory to edxapp.

mahesh1b · April 7, 2022, 4:57am

Hi @Andres.Aulasneo, the issue was due to the file permissions, I have changed the owner of the theme folder to the edxapp now the CSS changes are reflected. Thank you so much for the help
