You do realise that Apache will generally run your application as a special user. If that special user doesn't have read access to stuff, then things can not work properly. See:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/ApplicationIssues#Access_Rights_Of_Apache_User There is a lot of documentation on mod_wsgi site about issues that can come up with mod_wsgi. There is also documentation on using it with Django which is more detailed than Django's own documentation.
