[Django 5.1.0] The STATIC_URL is set but STATIC_ROOT is required?!

Description

With updating the django-ckeditor-5 and Django, the STATIC_ROOT and STATIC_URL are not working properly.

I have configured AWS S3, it is proven in battle, and without no change to the storages and so on, the collect static started requiring STATIC_ROOT when working with STATIC_URL.

When downgrading to 5.0.8, the process started working as expected again.
Below you can see the traceback.

Resolution: → invalid
Status: new → closed

It is most probably caused by using the now-removed STATICFILE_STORAGES setting, while the new STORAGES setting should be used.

Also note that the django-ckeditor-5 repository does not seem to present tests on Django 5.1 in its test suite, so maybe you should report that issue there.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
