Ok, now I see what I did wrong. Thanks a lot, it is perfect !

Sorry, I simplified the tree to make the explanation clearer.

My project is named "visu_casu", and the other directories that already are on my account (mapApp, media, static) are sub-directories for this django project. Everything works well on a local server.

The contents of my directories are:

public_html:

db.sqlite3
manage.py
mapApp/
media/
static/
visu_casu/

visu_casu:

.htaccess
__init__.py
__pycache__/
asgi.py
dispatch.wsgi
settings.py
urls.py
wsgi.py
 

And for the files:

.htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(media/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(admin_media/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(visu_casu/dispatch\.wsgi/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ visu_casu/dispatch.wsgi/$1 [QSA,PT,L]

dispatch.wsgi / wsgi.py

import os, sys

sys.path.append("/home/braux/public_html/visu_casu")

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'visu_casu.settings')

application = get_wsgi_application()

Oh, perfect, you were right about the port ! Thanks for that.

I've got a .htaccess file, but I really am confused about it. My tree is like that :

home/

└─ username/

  └── public_html/

    ├─── db.sqlite3

    ├─── manage.py

    └─── myproject/

      ├──── .htaccess

      ├──── dispatch.wsgi

      ├──── __init__.py

      ├──── __pycache__

      ├──── settings.py

      ├──── urls.py

      └──── wsgi.py

My .htaccess :

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(media/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(admin_media/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(myproject/dispatch\.wsgi/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ myproject/dispatch.wsgi/$1 [QSA,PT,L]

As this configuration has no logic for me, I also tried to put the .htaccess file in /home/username/public_html/, but then I get a 500 error.

My Django app runs well in local.
 

Hello,

I am new to Heliohost and already have a few problems.

First of all, I can't access cPanel. When I login to https://www.heliohost.org/login/ and use the "continue to cPanel" button, I end up on a loading error page. Is it because it needs a really good internet connection ? If so, what should I do, as I cannot get a better one for now ?

 
Secondly, I would like to host a Django application. I tried to follow the wiki-tutorial (https://wiki.helionet.org/tutorials/django), but all I get is a "basic hosting" of the files, and the app itself is not launched: when I go to my web address (mywebname.heliohost.us), I only get a list of the files and directories (db.sqlite3, manage.py, ...). If I host regular files (like .html files), I can access/see them without any problem.

- Do you see what I could have missed when uploading my django app ?

- What is the difference between the tutorial I followed (https://wiki.helionet.org/tutorials/django) and this one http://www.heliohost.org/classic/features/languages/python ? In particular, the second one says something about python's eggs, and that is not mentioned at all in the first one, so ... which is the "good" one ?

Thanks in advance for any answer, hoping that my English is not too horrid ...
