Need Help with modwsgi and Apache

[Mark Phillips]

I have a django 1.6 site running on my development machine under runserver, and another production machine with apache and modwsgi. When I access the production site within our LAN it works with no issues. When I try to access the site from outside our lan (ie from the wild and wolly Internet), I get a 500 error. My ISP blocks port 80, so I use port 7000, which works to access the site from within the LAN, but not from the outside. 

The Apache error log does not give much help, or I am not very good at understanding what it is telling me. I have set the error level to debug.

When I access the site from within my LAN, I get this information:

[Tue Feb 25 17:55:31.105004 2014] [deflate:debug] [pid 3867] mod_deflate.c(764): [client 192.168.25.1:48718] AH01384: Zlib: Compressed 571 to 353 : URL /mom/inventory/main

The messages are the same up to the last message in the second set, and it just stops. I can access the default apache site (000-default) from my LAN and from the Internet without any issues, so I think Apache is working correctly.

I have tried all sorts of urls in my settings file - the url of the router, the url from the Internet side, the LAN url of the production box, localhost, and 127.0.0.1.

Thanks for any suggestions you may have!
