I'm new to Python and trying to setup Django on my VPS that is running CentoOS 6.5. My Apache version is 2.2.15. Python is running on version 2.7.
- I created a virtualenv under /var/www/html/djangotest
- I installed Django under the new virtualenv
- I installed mod_wsgi, loaded the module, and created the following entry in my httpd.conf:
<VirtualHost *:80> WSGIDaemonProcess sampleapp python-path=/var/www/html/djangotest:/var/www/html/djangotest/env/lib/python2.7/site-packages WSGIProcessGroup sampleapp WSGIScriptAlias / /var/www/html/djangotest/sampleapp/wsgi.py DocumentRoot /var/www/html/djangotest/sampleapp ServerName django.domain.com ServerAlias www.django.domain.com ErrorLog /var/www/html/djangotest/error_logs <Directory /var/www/html/jdlferreira.com/djangotest> AllowOverride All Allow from all </Directory> </VirtualHost>
Restarted apache with success, but visiting the url is returning me 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable.
The guide that I essentially followed is https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-run-django-with-mod_wsgi-and-apache-with-a-virtualenv-python-environment-on-a-debian-vps (adjustments were made for CentOS)
Where did I go wrong?
