M2 backend theme css not loading

Question

I've created a backend theme from Mage/backend. When I deploy the static content, the theme is deployed but in front, the CSS is not shown. I created a styles.css file in the CSS folder of the theme.

Maybe I need to declare somewhere the styles.css but where?

• Jaimin: try to add in pub and load the page is it woring?
• St3phan: Where you create a new theme? In which folder?
• St3phan: We need more information.
• Kushal Dani: You can declare that css file in Magento_Theme->Layout->default.xml file and put css file in Magento_Theme->Css folder

Answer 1

After installing Magento 2

sudo service apache2 restart 
sudo chmod -R 777 var/
sudo chmod -R 777 pub/
sudo service apache2 restart
 sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/magento
 sudo a2enmod rewrite
sudo service apache2 restart

Content deploy

php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy "on root dir".

if it's not working yet

For Ubuntu edit the file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

find /var/www/

Change AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All under the following section:

<Directory /var/www/>
 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
 AllowOverride All
 Require all granted
</Directory>
