Hi Reikje, FANTASTIC TIP. The configuration in the book is straightforward and clear. It was not the 100% solution, but it took Apache out of the equation, and the focus was getting mod_wsgi configured and working.
Debugging tip: the suggested script.wsgi is a great place to debug path issues. In my case, the script worked using the virtual_env that Andreas helped me with, but did NOT work otherwise. By comparing the paths in the two environments, I was able to see what was needed to get it all up and running. For the moment, there is an ugly sys.path = ['lots','of','paths'...], based upon ======= import sys print sys.path ====== from the virtual environment. Judging from the number of 'help! my code doesn't work under apache' problems listed, this is a standard problem like CLASSPATH is to java. I will try to follow up with a summary of what is needed for other travelers on this road. thanks, Roger Marcus On Oct 25, 11:16 am, Reikje <reik.sch...@gmail.com> wrote: > On a side note, I can recommend this > book:http://www.packtpub.com/django-1-1-testing-and-debugging/book > They have an entire chapter for running Django on Apache. > > /Reik > > On Oct 24, 8:39 am, Roger Marcus <roger.mar...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > > > > > I have the django project Mezzanine up and working well.
