Problems setting up two Django sites in the same servername with two virtualhost files

[Dostowiesky Ugel]

Good morning, I'm trying to enable two Django Websites in my server but I can not make it work, I have only one subdomain and both sites should work from it.

The problem is that when I activate site's 1 virtualhost I can see it perfectly, but when I activate the site's 2 virtualhost I can only see site 2, and then when I try to see site 1 it shows the apache2 default page.

Below is my config

My site 1 is the root.

        Site 1 VirtualHost
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
    <VirtualHost *:443>
        ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
        #DocumentRoot /var/www/html


        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

        #   SSL Engine Switch:
        #   Enable/Disable SSL for this virtual host.
        SSLEngine on

        #   A self-signed (snakeoil) certificate can be created by installing
        #   the ssl-cert package. See
        #   /usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian.gz for more info.
        #   If both key and certificate are stored in the same file, only the
        #   SSLCertificateFile directive is needed.
        SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/route to my certificate
                SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/route to my certificate

i would appreciate your help!!

You aren't specifying ServerName directive in each VirtualHost for a start so Apache can't tell the VirtualHost's apart by host name.

Was that only in the email that you left them out?

See:

* http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2012/10/requests-running-in-wrong-django.html

for general advice on multiple sites being mixed up when using Django.

Just note the post is old and using process-group and application-group options to WSGIScriptAlias is now the preferred.

Good evening! thanks for the quick answer!

I put the ServerName in the apache2.conf file in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

Below the code:

# Global configuration
#
ServerName https://apps.dostow.tech

If I have to put the ServerName in each VirtualHost can it be the same one in both files?

I have only one subdomain "apps.dostow.tech" in this case so I can not use another.

Thanks again for your help!!

No it can't. Apache would always use the first VirtualHost found if you did.

You will have to merge the two VirtualHost definitions. Just ensure the WSGIScriptAlias for the sub path appears before that for the root of the site so it takes precedence. Ensure you use process-group option on WSGIScriptAlias instead of WSGIProcessGroup directive. Doing it this way is mentioned in the post I linked.

Ok! Understood, I will put both in the same VirtualHost file and add process-group option on WSGIScriptAlias, I will let you know the result, thank you!!

[Graham Dumpleton]

Just to be clear. It isn't adding the two separate VirtualHost's to one file, but merging the contents of the VirtualHost's so you only have one. Thus:

<VirtualHost *:443>

ServerName apps.dostow.tech

WSGIDaemonProcess project-2
WSGIScriptAlias /suburl /some/path/project-2/wsgi.py process-group=project-2 application-group=%{GLOBAL}

WSGIDaemonProcess project-1
WSGIScriptAlias / /some/path/project-1/wsgi.py process-group=project-1 application-group=%{GLOBAL}

...

</VirtualHost>

Perfect!! Yahoooo thank you so much!! It works now :-D Just adding the process-group option.

Thank you again!

[Dostowiesky Ugel]

Yes I did it exactly this way you said, merging the contents of the VirtualHost's and now it works perfect!

Thanks for your support!
