mod_wsgi can't find app to import..but I added path to wsgi file?!

[Chris Seberino]

I can successfully run a toy WSGI app with my Apache/mod_wsgi set up.

When I try to run my Django app with mod_wsgi it can't ever find the
modules to load and Apache's error.log gives ImportError's.

I tried adding paths to sys.path in the wsgi file.

Not what else to try.

you need to add the path to the *parent* directory of your project, and your
project should have __init__.py in every folder where there are python files

And the directories/files must be readable by the user that Apache is
running the application as, ie., the Apache user, if you haven't used
daemon mode and run it as a different user.

Thanks. I added __init__.py to an apache directory I created in my
project directory that includes the wsgi file.
Now Apache does NOT give me an error. Rather, now Apache just spins
and spins in some infinite loop never loading my django web page!?!?

No errors appear in the Apache error.log because it just spins waiting
to finish something.

....

Here is my wsgi file.....
================================================================

import sys
sys.path.append("/home/seb/MAIN")

import django.core.handlers.wsgi
import os

os.environ["DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE"] = "seoconquer.settings"
application =
django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()


Here is relevant part of my Apache config inside my vhosts......
================================================================

WSGIDaemonProcess seoconquer.com threads=25
WSGIProcessGroup seoconquer.com

WSGIScriptAlias /
\
/home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer/apache/
application.wsgi
<Directory /home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer/apache>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from All
</Directory>


Any help still greatly appreciated as always.

Check your apache logs.

I fixed the path issue that was causing the spinning but now I'm back
to getting import errors even with __init__.py in my apache
directory. Here is the exact error from Apache's error.log.....

What's the "mvc" module? Python can't seem to find it. Is it in your
python path?

ImportError: No module named mvc

What's the "mvc" module? Python can't seem to find it. Is it in your
python path?

My project is called seoconquer.
My app is called mvc.
My absolute directory path to mvc is /home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer/mvc.

I have /home/seb/MAIN added to path in the wsgi file. (See above.)

I'm trying to load the mvc app in my settings file with INSTALLED_APPS
= (...., "seoconquer.mvc")

Here is my settings.py..

# Contains the configuration settings.

import os

DEBUG = True

DATABASE_NAME = "seoconquer"
DATABASE_USER = "seb"
DATABASE_ENGINE = "django.db.backends.mysql"
TEMPLATE_DIRS = ("/home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer/mvc/views",)
ROOT_URLCONF = DATABASE_NAME + "." + "urls"
LOGIN_URL = "sign_in"
INSTALLED_APPS = ("django.contrib.auth",
"django.contrib.contenttypes",
"django.contrib.sessions",
"seoconquer.mvc")

You also need to add '/home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer'. Read:

http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2010/03/improved-wsgi-script-for-use-with.html

The __init__.py file in 'apache' subdirectory where WSGI script file
is not needed and will not do anything.

I tried both versions of the wsgi script on your blog. And I still get
this same error.....

ImportError: No module named mvc

I think the problem is this line in settings.py where it can't find
seoconquer.mvc to load.

I printed the vars on your blog from withing my settings.py if that
helps...

__name__ =seoconquer.settings
__file__ =/home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer/settings.py
os.getcwd() =/home/www
os.curdir =.
sys.path =['/home/seb/MAIN', '/home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer',...etc.]
sys.modules.keys() =['django.utils.text', 'decimal',
'django.core.django',...etc.]
sys.modules.has_key('seoconquer') =True

Notice that both necessary paths are in sys.path?!?!!?

In '/home/seb/MAIN/seoconquer', can you do:

ls -las

ls -las mvc

and post the output.

If you are concerned about revealing details send it to my email
direct.
