Django 1.9 Apache Error Import Django.core.handlers.wsgi Importerror: No Module Named 'django'

I try to deploy my Django project to apache. But I getting an error 500response. And in logs I getting information that Django is missing. I'm using virtualenvto run this project.

Solution 1:

I got a few apache servers with django and it was pain when i set up them. So minimum working configuration with static files is:

WSGIPythonPath /home/mariusz/Dokumenty/Projekty/zalien

<VirtualHost *:80>
    WSGIScriptAlias / /home/mariusz/Dokumenty/Projekty/zalien/zalien/wsgi.py

    <Directory /home/mariusz/Dokumenty/Projekty/zalien/zalien>
        <Files wsgi.py>
            Require all granted
        </Files>
    </Directory>

    # Django static files, here you must specify your own path's
    Alias /static/ /var/www/djangointra/static/
    <Directory"/var/www/djangointra/static">
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Also you should not modify your wsgi.py files in your django projects. Apache configuration is enough to start your web-server.

EDIT: wsgi.py

"""
WSGI config for djago_api project.

It exposes the WSGI callable as a module-level variable named ``application``.

For more information on this file, see

"""import os

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "djago_api.settings")

application = get_wsgi_application()

Solution 2:

Never too late. May be this will help someone else. I had the same error and it is resolved by 2 changes. Below is the working config. I had Django 1.10, Python 3.5 and Apache 2.4

wsgi.pi

import os, sys, site

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application


site.addsitedir("/home/mariusz/Dokumenty/Projekt/envy/lib/python3.5/site-packages")

sys.path.append("/home/mariusz/Dokumenty/Projekty/zalien")
sys.path.append("/home/mariusz/Dokumenty/Projekty/zalien/zalien")

activate_this = "/home/mariusz/Dokumenty/Projekty/envy/bin/activate_this.py"withopen(activate_this) as f:
    code = compile(f.read(), activate_this, "exec")
    exec(code, dict(__file__=activate_this))

os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "zalien.settings")

application = get_wsgi_application()
