After spending sometime with Magento 2 (2.13) , as I am running Nginx and PHP 7 fpm I was getting a lot of error and after some research I was able to find a solution simply replace location static in given magento 2 nginx configuration file and restart nginx and php fpm server to reflect changes.
location /static/ { if ($MAGE_MODE = "production") { expires max; } # Remove signature of the static files that is used to overcome the browser cache location ~ ^/static/version { rewrite ^/static/(versiond*/)?(.*)$ /static/$2 last; } location ~* .(ico|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|svg|js|css|swf|eot|ttf|otf|woff|woff2)$ { add_header Cache-Control "public"; add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN"; expires +1y; if (!-f $request_filename) { rewrite ^/static/(versiond*/)?(.*)$ /static.php?resource=$2 last; } } location ~* .(zip|gz|gzip|bz2|csv|xml)$ { add_header Cache-Control "no-store"; add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN"; expires off; if (!-f $request_filename) { rewrite ^/static/(versiond*/)?(.*)$ /static.php?resource=$2 last; } } if (!-f $request_filename) { rewrite ^/static/(versiond*/)?(.*)$ /static.php?resource=$2 last; } add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN"; }
