Ok, I took the last email private with Rob, and got it sorted! It seemed that apache couldn't access any files in /home/acid2, so the solution has been to move everything into /opt/django, so I did:
sudo mv /home/acid2/src/django_src/ /opt/django/src/ sudo rm /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django sudo ln -s /opt/django_src/django /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ django Also, I store my projects and their templates in /opt/django_projects and /opt/django_templates, respectivly. Quick hint that i'll pass on from Rob (that I'm sure many people know) - settings.py contains sensitive information, so I have made this private with: chmod 0750 /whatever/settings.py chown root:apache /whatever/settings.py Now it's read/write/execute for root, and only read/execute for apache. Hurrah! Big thanks to Rob for helping me get this fixed! - Oliver Charles On Apr 18, 10:10 pm, Oliver Charles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I get... > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ sudo -u apache python > Password: > Python 2.4.3 (#1, Mar 14 2007, 18:51:08) > [GCC 4.1.1 20070105 (Red Hat 4.1.1-52)] on linux2 > Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.>>> > import django > > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? > ImportError: No module named django>>> import sys > >>> sys.path > > ['', '/usr/lib/python24.zip', '/usr/lib/python2.4', '/usr/lib/ > python2.4/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/ > python2.4/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages'] > > So this is the problem I guess - apache can't access django, but I'm > not sure why... any ideas? > > oggie rob: Nah, I'm not discouraged, I really like there attidue... > linux isn't my forte though it seems! > > -- > Ollie > > On Apr 18, 10:05 pm, oggie rob <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > What happens when you run: > > sudo -u apache python>>> import django > > >>> django > > > <module 'django' from '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/ > > __init__.pyc'> > > > BTW, I use openhosting and have a few django sites running so don't be > > discouraged! > > > -rob > > > On Apr 18, 12:59 pm, Oliver Charles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Ok, > > > > I've done a ton of googling on this, and not come up with much luck. > > > Here's my situation: > > > > I've just purchased a new VPS from OpenHosting for a project, and it > > > comes with mod_python, apache2 and postgresql all setup.
