Re: Deploying django with Apache2 and mod-wsgi in ubuntu14.04

[Antonis Christofides]

Hi,

It's not easy to know with certainty what has happened, but from the symptoms
you describe it seems to me that most probably between Saturday and Monday
something may have happened (such as a change of the system's IP address) that
means that Apache isn't resolving it to the appropriate "virtual host" (i.e.
domain).

In order to avoid such problems, I no longer test deployment on my machine (or
in VMs that run on my machine), because I then have to struggle with NAT,
firewalls etc. Instead, I test on VMs on Digital Ocean, which have real IP
addresses, and can be had for something like $0.01 per hour.

Regards,

Antonis

Re: Deploying django with Apache2 and mod-wsgi in ubuntu14.04

[Thiago Luiz Parolin]

I am using django and apache in a debian 8 and 9 server and everything is
working fine.

Firstly, don't use /var/www/html for python files.

In my server, we have a ordinary user that host python files in his home
dir.

I will try enumerate some steps used in one of my projects:
 - with your ordinary user, create your virtualenv
 - put your project in a folder  (sub folder in home of that user)
 - install and secure mysql
 - configure your settings (db settings, settings.py, create database if
needed)
 - test your db connection and make migrations, load fixtures and others.
 - install apache2 (in debian libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3 was required)
 - configure apache (for me just a single file
/etc/apache2/sites-available/your-site-name.conf was sufficient)
 - adjust directory permissions if needed (/var/www or others)
 - restart apache and all is working..

You can read this link to see more info:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi/
Hope it helps you.
