What you're doing wrong is following a tutorial that doesn't cover your
situation (and you don't seem to be familiar with the underlying
mod_wsgi technology).
Your error is caused by the fact that you refer all locations to django
in your webserver and the solution is to study mod_wsgi documentation on
how to route a location to a specific WSGI application.
To mod_wsgi, django is a WSGI application and so are your other projects
(if they previously worked as wsgi applications) or they are implemented
differently.
You should either route everything by default to django and override
your project locations or only route locations specific to django to the
django wsgi application and let everything else be handled by the webserver.
What is best for your situation only you can decide.
