Django Not Working

[Pep]

I have followed every step to make my Django powered site (leolanchas.com.ar/syte) to work but all I get is an error 500 and the following log:

 

[sun Jan 06 11:53:23 2013] [error] [client 83.36.255.43] File ".../public_html/syte/dispatch.wsgi", line 6, in ?

[sun Jan 06 11:53:23 2013] [error] [client 83.36.255.43] mod_wsgi (pid=19418): Exception occurred processing WSGI script .../public_html/syte/dispatch.wsgi'.

[sun Jan 06 11:53:23 2013] [error] [client 83.36.255.43] mod_wsgi (pid=19418): Target WSGI script '.../public_html/syte/dispatch.wsgi' cannot be loaded as Python module

 

What is happening?

[Shinryuu]

Have you checked file permissions for your ~/public_html/syte/ folder?

[Pep]

Permissions are as indicated here: http://www.heliohost.org/home/features/languages/python

[Shinryuu]

Could you pastebin your source or something? those errors don't really give us anything to work with.

 

My guess is since it's not specifying a line number ir anything it's permissions, malformed http header or wrong line endings. Or some other sort of configuration issue.

[Pep]

The code is the same as this one: http://rigoneri.github.com/syte/ I forked the repository and just changed the content. The .htaccess and dispatch.wsgi are as indicated in the python instructions.

 

Maybe it has to do with the Django version of the project (1.4)

Maybe it has to do with the Django version of the project (1.4)

 

Quite likely considering:

 

Version

Python 2.4.3

Python 2.7.1

Python 3.2

Django 1.0.0

Django 1.3.0 Loader

CGI

WSGI (mod_wsgi) Snake Charmer

Stevie: Python 2.4

Stevie: Python 2.7

Why don't you update Django?

[Shinryuu]

Me? I don't have the ability to do so. The administration? Probably checking for how that could break other users' sites and how many sites.

[Pep]

Sorry, I don't know why I took for granted that you were part of the staff.

 

In the end, if I can't fix it, I'll have to choose another host.

You don't need to switch!

I just figured out a way to run Django 1.5 in my HelioHost account . I'll start another topic on that and then get back to you here...

You don't need to switch! I just figured out a way to run Django 1.5 in my HelioHost account :D/>. I'll start another topic on that and then get back to you here...

Here's the post I made on how to set up Django 1.5; I think you could follow the same instructions for Django 1.4 as well: helionet.org/index/topic/17025-successfully-runnig-django-151-on-heliohost/
