Hi Ajay, As you start playing with pathagar on XSCE, could you look at what will be involved to get it to work properly when the package is not located at the root of the server, ie. when WSGIalias is set to /books/ or /pathatar/?
Seth looked at the access log,(copied below) and concluded that there would be some programatic changes required. Following is part of our conversation: Seth wrote: Django is definitely messing up. books/book/add is the url you want, right? You are prefixing a url with /books/$pathagar. If you can put pathagar at the root of your domain, it should just work. If hosting pathagar with a prefix is necessary there are two things we can do: (On the XSCE server, I think we need a prefix -gh) 1. Look up the right Django way to make this abstract. I am pretty sure a preferred way exists, but it will take me some time to seek the solution out and implement it. 2. Modify all of the url routes in urls.py > (r'^tags/(?P<tag>.+)/$', 'pathagar.books.views.by_tag', would become > (r'^books/tags/(?P<tag>.+)/$', 'pathagar.books.views.by_tag', This is probably your best bet given your time constraints. --Seth On Sun, Aug 25, 2013 at 6:58 PM, George Hunt <georgejh...@gmail.com> wrote: > > After logging in as an administrative user to pathagar, the following log > snippet shows an effort to select a book to upload in the > pathagar-error.log file: > > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:14:13:49 +0000] "GET /favicon.ico > HTTP/1.1" 404 342 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) > AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:09:13:54 -0500] "GET /books/latest > HTTP/1.1" 301 - "http://172.18.96.1/portal/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; > Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) > Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:09:13:59 -0500] "GET /books/latest/ > HTTP/1.1" 200 3782 "http://172.18.96.1/portal/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; > Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) > Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:09:13:59 -0500] "GET /favicon.ico > HTTP/1.1" 404 342 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) > AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:09:14:08 -0500] "GET /books/book/add HTTP/1.1" > 200 6405 "http://172.18.96.1/books/latest/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; > Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) > Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:09:14:14 -0500] "GET > /media/js/admin/RelatedObjectLookups.js HTTP/1.1" 404 369 " > http://172.18.96.1/books/book/add" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS > X 10_8_2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.95 > Safari/537.36" > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:09:14:14 -0500] "GET /favicon.ico > HTTP/1.1" 404 342 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) > AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > > <the book for upload was selected at this point, and the "add" button at > the bottom right of the screen was activated> > > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:14:14:26 +0000] "POST /book/add HTTP/1.1" > 404 339 "http://172.18.96.1/books/book/add" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; > Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) > Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > 172.18.100.204 - - [22/Aug/2013:14:14:26 +0000] "GET /favicon.ico > HTTP/1.1" 404 342 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) > AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.36" > > > (color added to highlight the url which seems questionable-- second was > different from the first) > I believe that that the correct url to post the data would be > "/books/book/add" > > This is because the httpd WSGIAlias in /etc/httpd/conf.d/pathagar.conf > points to the pathagar.wsgi file, which I think also should be used as a > prefix to the package.

I'm glad to have your help resolving the remaining issues with pathagar on XSCE.
