I am making my first attempt to get django working with Apache. Specifically, I'm trying to add some django functionality to a site that is already running other web-based applications (mostly nagios). So what I've done is create a project with "django-admin.py startproject dashboard" in /home/source/django-projects and 'django- admin.py startapp events" in /home/source/django-projects/dashboard.
I've added an Apache config file named "dashboard.conf" that contains: LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so WSGIScriptAlias /wsgitest /home/source/django-projects/dashboard/ test.wsgi WSGIScriptAlias /dashboard/ /home/source/django-projects/dashboard/ dashboard/wsgi.py WSGIPythonPath /home/source/django-projects/dashboard <Directory /home/source/django-projects/dashboard> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> "startproject" created /home/source/django-projects/dashboard/ dashboard/wsgi.py. It's the basic WSGI config file described in the tutorials and the Djengo book, with some explanatory comments added. Now I've got to build /home/source/django-projects/dashboard/dashboard/ urls.py. For testing purposes I would like a request for http://<server>/dashboard/hello to execute function "hello" in /home/ source/django-projects/events/views.py. Do I understand the Django book properly, that views.py should then contain: from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url from events.views import hello from django.contrib import admin admin.autodiscover() urlpatterns = patterns('', url('^hello/$', hello), #url(r'^admin/doc/', include('django.contrib.admindocs.urls')), #url(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)), ) This is how I've got things configured now, but when I try to go to http://<server>/dashboard/hello I get a 404 error. And while playing around I see that trying to go to http://<server>/dashboard/ gives me a 500 error. Here's where it gets interesting: When I look in Apache's error_log I see the following: [Fri Mar 29 18:32:09 2013] [notice] Apache/2.2.3 (Red Hat) configured -- resuming normal operations [Fri Mar 29 18:32:09 2013] [info] Server built: May 28 2012 08:45:26 [Fri Mar 29 18:32:09 2013] [debug] prefork.c(996): AcceptMutex: sysvsem (default: sysvsem) [Fri Mar 29 18:32:09 2013] [info] mod_wsgi (pid=10818): Attach interpreter ''.

I get the same message in error_log whether I request http://<server>/dashboard/events or http://<server>/dashboard/events/. I realize that I must be screwing up something very simple, but trying to django to cooperate with Apache is proving to be frustrating. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
