Ok, so that's the same setup we use... Are you/they using the WSGIDaemonProcess and WSGIProcessGroup directives ? (I bet they do if it's shared hosting and they know what's good for them). But anyway: I did not test the damn thing thoroughly but IIRC the problem appeared whether running daemon or embedded mode - the django process env is stil inherited from the Apache process. Using os.setenv in the .wsgi script is _supposed_ to cure the problem but our experience (here again I did not have time to really explore the problem :-/) is that it often doesn't work (can't even tell if it ever worked at all), so we alway end up editing apache conf - which _is_ a know working solution. Your best bet here is to first try the os.setenv trick, and if it doesn't solve the problem contact webfaction and see what you / they can do.
