I checked the output of our web app. The problem seems to be connected with DB settings. The output says that
raise ImproperlyConfigured, "Could not load database backend: %s. Is your DATABASE_ENGINE setting (currently, %r) spelled correctly? Available options are: %s" % \ 24 (exc, DATABASE_ENGINE, ", ".join(map(repr, available_backends))) Please check: - your DB settings in settings.py - Dreamhost seems to support only MySQL, you have to consider this; - whether you can import a database wrapper module, i.e., MySQLdb. If not, download it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python and install it locally, somewhere in your home dir. Then, put it in your sys.path, like you did it with django_src and django_projects. and after each change, pkill python. Greetings, Giorgi
