What version of Django are you using?
What is in your WSGI script file?
You aren't using Django 1.0 by chance, but have used the workaround
described in mod_wsgi wiki documentation related to mounting at sub
URL which should only be used for Django prior to 1.0. Using that
workaround would cause strange problems with Django 1.0.
