How do I supply an appropriate application.wsgi to Gunicorn?

[Christos Jonathan Seth Hayward]

From http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27113466/how-can-i-deploy-django-gunicorn-under-apache-proxy:

've run through the documentation and am hitting the same pages over and over again. At present I've found documentation to run off an existing myapp.wsgi file, but documentation for how to make an appropriate wsgi file is a little harder to find.

If I want to make, proxied by Apache, the equivalent of, on an older version of Gunicorn etc.:

python manage.py run_gunicorn 0.0.0.0:8888

what should I be doing to supply a WSGI file for:

gunicorn project.wsgi:application

Thanks,

That depends a bit on your version of Django. For any Django version
since 1.4, 'django-admin.py startproject' should generate a wsgi.py file
in your project. If your project doesn't have one, you can run
'startproject' to quickly see what one should look like and copy it into
your project.

Ok; wonder if I should upgrade Django.

I just ran a startproject earlier today (I can re-create it; I was just trying to get it running and see the start page in my browser before going further).

cjsh@ps306627:~/cynthia$ find . -name \*.wsgi

cjsh@ps306627:~/cynthia$ python manage.py shell

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Aug 12 2014, 07:57:07) 

[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

(InteractiveConsole)

>>> import django

>>> dir(django)

['VERSION', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', 'conf', 'contrib', 'core', 'db', 'dispatch', 'forms', 'get_version', 'http', 'middleware', 'shortcuts', 'template', 'templatetags', 'test', 'utils', 'views']

>>> django.VERSION

(1, 6, 5, 'final', 0)

>>> 

​Further suggestions?

Thanks,

Carl

Your Django version is fine. The problem is that you're expecting to
find a file with the `.wsgi` extension. The file Django generates is
called `myproject/wsgi.py`, thus its dotted Python import path (which is
what you pass to gunicorn) is `myproject.wsgi`.

Thanks so much!

Could you confirm the invocation?

cjsh@ps306627:~/cynthia$ gunicorn cynthia.wsgi 0.0.0.0:7777

usage: gunicorn [OPTIONS] [APP_MODULE]

gunicorn: error: No application module specified.

cjsh@ps306627:~/cynthia$ gunicorn cynthia.wsgi:application 0.0.0.0:7777

usage: gunicorn [OPTIONS] [APP_MODULE]

gunicorn: error: No application module specified.

cjsh@ps306627:~/cynthia$ gunicorn cynthia.wsgi:cynthia 0.0.0.0:7777

usage: gunicorn [OPTIONS] [APP_MODULE]

gunicorn: error: No application module specified.

That's the right invocation, but you need your python path set up to
include the directory that has `manage.py` in it (when you actually run
a `manage.py` command, this happens automatically, but not when you run
gunicorn).

There are a variety of ways that can be done, the simplest is to run
your gunicorn command from the same directory that contains `manage.py`
and set the PYTHONPATH env var:

PYTHONPATH=`pwd` gunicorn cynthia.wsgi 0.0.0.0:7777

Sorry, I was focused on the Python issues, didn't notice that you're
trying to pass a bind address without using the `-b` option. This is
what you want:

PYTHONPATH=`pwd` gunicorn -b 0.0.0.0:7777 cynthia.wsgi

And with that, I'm off and running!

Thank you for your help.
