Re: fundamental issues with configuring Apache and mod_python
Thanks I took your configuration and was able to configure mine accordingly. I still don't completely understand it, but at least I can get to the admin page and the poll page. And, now I can finish the tutorial. I don't think that I have some permissions correct though because my pages don't have any style. So, I think I must need to open access to the Apache user to wherever the style sheets are stored. Here's the configuration that worked for me: ServerName www.myDomain.com ServerAlias myDomain.com *.myDomain.com DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/myDomain.com/docroot # # for django SetHandler python-program PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE linkshare.settings PythonDebug On PythonPath "['/usr/local/www/myDomain.com/'] + sys.path" For anyone searching the archives for this topic, the keys to my problem were the following: I moved the separate directive into my directory. So, now the are combined. This next part is a complete assumption. But, this is how it looks like to me. The value for the directive is appended to the DocumentRoot directive to construct the path on the file system that you want Python to handle. So, I set mine to "/". The "SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE linkshare.settings" line is either apparently relative to the path you add to the directive, which is appended to the the DocumentRoot, or it is appended to the PythonPath.

fundamental issues with configuring Apache and mod_python
I am trying to experiment with django. And, I'm at a loss. My
problem is that I just don't conceptually understand how to match up
where everything is supposed to go on the filesystem and how to
configure Apache and mod_python to be aware of it.
I am running Apache2 on Ubuntu Edgy with mod_python 3.2.8. And, I
have gotten my Django pages to render in a text based web browser
(with the builtin web server).
Here's a little information about what my file system looks like:
/usr/local/www/myDomain.com/docroot(where my HTML went before
Django -- my DocumentRoot)
/usr/local/www/myDomain.com/linkshare (where I put my Django project
files)
/usr/local/www/myDomain.com/linkshare/polls(where I put the polls
app I've created from the tutorial)
/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django(where I installed
Django)
So, I am confused what I should use for the paths for some of the
directives (look for the 3 places I put "whatGoesHere" in the snippet
from apache2.conf below):
SetHandler python-program
PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE whatGoesHere.settings
PythonDebug On
DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/myDomain.com/docroot
ServerName www.myDomain.com
ServerAlias myDomain.com *. myDomain.com
PythonPath "['whatGoesHere'] + sys.path"
Do I need a DocumentRoot directive in my VirtualHost?
My urls.py file looks like the following. I assume it's right because
http://localhost:8000/polls works in my text browser. Although,
http://localhost:8000/ doesn't render. I'm not sure how to get a
default view.
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^polls/$', 'linkshare.polls.views.index'),
(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/$',
'linkshare.polls.views.detail'),
(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/results/$',
'linkshare.polls.views.results'),
(r'^polls/(?P\d+)/vote/$',
'linkshare.polls.views.vote'),
# Uncomment this for admin:
(r'^admin/', include('django.contrib.admin.urls')),
