Django project settings module is not being picked up from within mod_wsgi. Import fine from within python.

[unknownerror]

I've added a file called sites.pth to my standard python site-packages
directory and my django module can be imported via python itself. So
my question is what may be causing mod_wsgi from within apache to not
pick up on the path modules when python itself does. I've tried
various things like adding the WSGIPythonHome directive to the main
apache config. But, then none of the standard modules are found:
cannot import modules os.

Thanks for any help in advance...

I.E.
#python
>>import mysite.settings
>>

But, when I set environment inside my wsgi file it fails to import...

I.E.
import os
import sys
import pprint

sys.path.append('/home/www')
sys.path.append('/home/www/mysite')
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'mysite.settings'

print sys.prefix
pprint.pprint(sys.path)

import mysite
#import django.core.handlers.wsgi
#application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler( )
