Hi Julio, Thanks a lot for the response! Unfortunately no, the deployment is done with wsgi and apache using shared hosting :(. I actually also get the error if I don't use the prefix (the mysite part was just a test) so that possibly means that the prefix isn't causing the issue, but I could easily be wrong about that!
