Hello!

I have been stuck on this for many days. I have a successful local django app which I can access the URL's as I expect to when I run django's dev server. I pushed all the code to the server, and can still run the django dev server successfully and curl the appropriate URL's, and receive the HTML response I expect.

However, when I try to curl the ip/port combo I opened up with apache, I can connect, however I get a 404 on the URL (that should succeed), curl -v http://127.0.0.1:8090/login/ for instance.

foobar@foobar:/etc/apache2/sites-available$ curl -v http://127.0.0.1:8090/login/

* Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache

* Trying 127.0.0.1...

* Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 8090 (#0)

</body></html>

* Connection #0 to host 127.0.0.1 left intact

When I check the apache logs (after I turned on info level of detail) I see it is looking for this path incorrectly (instead of allowing django to do it's thing and redirect to the actual login.html which resides within the django project.

AH00128: File does not exist: /var/www/login/

I was able to host a static html file with this current apache setup, I can get django to work on it's dev server, but the connection between the two is faulty. Here is my current setup:

wsgi.py

import os

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

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

application = get_wsgi_application()

avails.conf (within sites-available, sites-enabled)

ServerAdmin foo...@foobar.com

ServerName avails

ServerAlias foobar

ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

WSGIScriptAlias /avails /var/www/BI-WebApp/avails/avails/wsgi.py

WSGIProcessGroup avails

WSGIDaemonProcess avails python-home=/usr python-path=/var/www/BI-WebApp/avails/xmlgen

Require all granted

</Files>

</Directory>

Require all granted

</Directory>

LogLevel info

</VirtualHost>

Any point in some sort of direction would be supreme!

Thanks in advance,

Josh

You are using:

WSGIScriptAlias /avails ...

so the WSGI application is mounted at a sub URL, not the root of the site. Therefore:

http://127.0.0.1:8090/login

isn't going to work.

You possibly want:

WSGIScriptAlias / ...

That is, mount it at the root of the site.

You also don't need:

python-home=/usr

if not using a Python virtual environment and are instead installing everything into your system Python.
