this is my what i added to my httpd.conf :

 

LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so

WSGIScriptAlias / /home/ashtanga/public_html/ash/apache/django.wsgi

 

the path to my Django project is /home/ashtanga/public_html/ash

This is my django.wsgi file:

import os

import sys

sys.path.append('/home/ashtanga/public_html/ash')

the actual adress for

security purposes but the path leads to my project called ash

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'ash.settings'

import django.core.handlers.wsgi

application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

 

can anyone help me figure out why is it not working ? by the way, this configuration makes most of the websites in my server go offline and display a 500 error

Moved to customer service and escalated.

You can't have your own httpd.conf. Do you mean .htaccess? Regardless, .htaccess won't honor LoadModule directives.

i have root access, so i have an httpd.conf which is connected to all my websites

Oh, you aren't running this on our server are you? o_O;

I'm pretty sure he isn't. commonzenpython: This forum is for support with a HelioHost account.

 

If you have root access, our configuration won't be best for you. We're set up to avoid any specific httpd.conf directives.
