Hi,
I'm still stuck on getting Apache to verify as working with wsgi.
Wondering what I might be doing incorrectly.
I'm reading lots of tuts, but it's a jungle out there.
I changed the folder hierarchy for the project and app so
venv, django_project, and django_app are all on the same level as manage.py
thus:
c:/wamp/www-src/django_project
c:/wamp/www-src/django_app
c:/wamp/www-src/venev
c:/wamp/www-src/manage.py
In wamp create folder named www-src alongside the www folder.
cd into www-src.
created a virtual environment:
Inside www-src run > virtualenv venv
ACTIVATE and DEACTIVATE:
then activate by
> venv\Scripts\activate
if that works see (venv) as a prefix to the command line. To deactivate
type:
>venv\Scripts\deactivate.bat.
...or can also just use
(venv) c:\wamp\www-src >deactivate
-------------------------
DJANGO PROJECT, APP, and VENV:
Then with the virtual environment active, install Django with the local
instance of pip by typing: >pip install django
then created a new django project >python django-admin.py startproject
django_project
and on the same level as manage.py type
>django-admin.py startapp django_app
Should have django_app folder, django_project folder, venv folder, and
manage.py all on the same level.
SETUP SQLITE DATABASE:
in the top level folder (the one with manage.py in it), type this in:
> python manage.py migrate
START RUNSERVER:
> python manage.py runserver
see success...so far.
-------------------------
Trying to get Apache production server working...
SETUP STATIC files location:
in settings.py
SETTINGS.PY:
in settings.py change STATIC_URL to:
STATIC_URL = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/")
...also set
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/")
then run
>(venv) c:\wamp\www-src>manage.py collectstatic
(should see new static dir under www-src)
---------------
MIGRATIONS:
then from c:\wamp\www-src run
(venv) c:\wamp\www-src >manage.py makemigrations
then
(venv) c:\wamp\www-src >manage.py migrate
SETTINGS.PY
in settings.py change STATIC_URL to:
STATIC_URL = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/")
...also set
STATIC_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "static/")
then run
>(venv) c:\wamp\www-src>manage.py collectstatic
(should see new static dir under www-src)
----------------------
...per Jason's suggestion for simple view and url...
in DJANGO_APP/VIEWS.PY
def index(request):
return HttpResponse("Working!")
----------------------
in DJANGO_APP/URLS.PY
from django_app.views import index
urlpatterns = [
path('', index),
]
-----------------------------

restart APACHE
...but what is the correct URL to test here?
tried localhost:8000 all pointing to various folders but nothing connects
so far.
