I have a new-ish Drupal 8.7.7 installation that I recently moved from a subdirectory to root. All my CSS settings went away for a while, but I got most of them back by unchecking "Aggregate CSS files" and "Aggregate JavaScript files". Color hasn't come back, however. The Color module is enabled.

Looking at my page source I see that most stylesheet paths start out with "/core/...", but the color one starts out with "/color/...":

<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="/core/themes/bartik/css/components/ui-dialog.css?yyyyyy" />
<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="/color/bartik-xxxxxxxx/colors.css?yyyyyy" />
<link rel="stylesheet" media="print" href="/core/themes/bartik/css/print.css?yyyyyy" />

(xxxxxxxx is a hash value that changes each time I save a new color configuration.) I have confirmed that the page source is including the new hash value each time.

That /color/ directory exists not under the root, but under /sites/default/files . Could this be the cause of my missing color? Or will paths relative to /sites/default/files also be treated as relative to root somehow?

  1. Installed Drupal 8.7.7 in /drupal8 subdirectory.
  2. Populated Drupal 8 with some content.
  3. Tweaked the color of Bartik theme at /admin/appearance/settings/bartik. Observed changed colors in display.
  4. Moved drupal8 folder contents to root and modified settings.php to point to new base_url. Observed web site contents display in browser but with no CSS atributes.
  5. Went to /admin/config/development/performance and cleared cache >>> no change. Went to /admin/config/development/performance again and unchecked "Aggregate CSS files" and "Aggregate JavaScript files" and saved. Cleared cache again. Observed web site in browser with all CSS restored except color.

I just upgraded to latest 8.7.7 yesterday and hitting the same issue. Google Chrome reports colors.css was not found on the server.

Patch in #26 in the thread mentioned in #6 here did not work for me in 8.7.9. (I commented in that thread, too.)
